About this map

Howard Mountain anchors the high country of this terrain, marking a boundary where the Fort Hall Indian Reservation meets the Caribou National Forest. The landscape is a network of vital water sources and early access routes, with Michaud Creek and Bannock Creek threading through the valleys. The maps shows evidence of livestock and early industry through the presence of a Corral, several storage bins, and scattered Gravel Pit and Prospect sites.

Local landmarks such as Eagletail Rock and the remote Horse Lake provide orientation for those researching family history or historical land use in this part of Power and Bannock counties. A solitary Cem and several family-named springs, including Outlaw Spring and Wildcat Spring, offer specific points of interest for genealogists tracing the early settlement patterns and range life of the Idaho interior.
