About this map

Magic Reservoir dominates the eastern landscape of this Idaho quadrangle, serving as a hub for both utility and recreation. The shoreline is punctuated by local infrastructure including the Magic Reservoir Airport and the Magic Resort settlement, alongside boat access points such as Moonstone Landing and Hot Springs Landing. This 2010 survey illustrates a complex water management system where Camas Creek and the Big Wood River converge, supported by numerous smaller impoundments like Magpie Reservoir, Grouse Reservoir, and the Dry Wash Dam.

High desert ranching and volcanic terrain define the surrounding uplands. Named working landscapes like Rowley Ranch and Rock Creek Ranch sit among prominent features like Moonstone Mountain and the expansive Macon Flat. The map also captures an intricate network of natural springs, including Water Cress Spring and Pofferman Spring, which have long been vital water sources in this arid environment north of the Snake River Plain.
