About this map

The high-elevation settlement of Lynn and its nearby Cem anchor the northwestern corner of this territory where the Raft River Mountains meet the Sawtooth Mountains. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage of Dove Creek and its many tributaries, such as Left Hand Fork Dove Creek and Ed Richie Creek, which cut through the protected lands of the Sawtooth National Forest.

Resource extraction and seasonal mountain access are evident through several Quarries and Prospects scattered across the ridges, while Junction Road provides the primary transit route through the valley. Water sources are critical in this arid upland, marked by Lynn Reservoir and remote sites like Chambers Spring and Clarks Basin Spring. To the south, the terrain rises toward the Grouse Creek Mountains, featuring prominent landmarks like Marble Canyon Peak.
