2017 Map of Meadow Creek Mountain

About this map

Blackfoot Reservoir dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, its waters broken by Poison Creek Island and Nettle Island just north of the Bingham Co Caribou Co line. The terrain transitions from the high peaks of the Blackfoot Mountains and Meadow Creek Mountain to unique geological features like the Willow Creek Lava Field and the curious Meteor Hole on Wilson Flat. Transport across this high-elevation area is marked by rugged corridors like Bone Rd and Cranes Flat Rd, which trace the drainage basins of Willow Cr and Meadow Cr. This survey illustrates the intricate relationship between the volcanic geology of the region and the massive water management system of the reservoir and the Blackfoot River in the early 21st century.
