Lemon Reservoir dominates the eastern drainage of Missionary Ridge, formed by the construction of Lemon Dam across the Florida River. This high-altitude landscape is defined by a series of named parks and canyons that reflect the historical grazing and transit patterns of the region, including Big Bear Park, Horse Park, and the descriptively named Horse Thief Park. High points like Silver Pass and Miller Mountain frame the watershed, where numerous tributaries such as Waldner Creek and Blodgett Creek feed into the central reservoir. The area is heavily marked by recreational and forest infrastructure, shown through established sites like Transfer Park Campground and Bear Creek Campground. The map also captures the rugged drainage systems of McClure Canyon and Youngs Canyon, illustrating the complex topography east of the ridge line.
