About this map

The Blackfoot Mountains dominate this high-elevation landscape in Idaho, where the Blackfoot River carves a path through the southwestern corner. This area is defined by a dense network of mountain drainages, including Mackelroy Cr in the north and the complex system of Trail Cr and Rawlins Cr to the southeast. The geography suggests a region primarily used for timber, grazing, and transit, marked by landmarks like Blue Ridge and High Basin.

Transportation through these ridges is managed by established routes like the Portneuf Presto-Trail Rd and Blackfoot River Rd, which follow the natural contours of the river valleys. A specific point of human infrastructure, the Trail Creek Bridge, sits at a junction in the southern portion of the quadrangle. These features, along with names like Menassa Cr and Beaver Cr, reflect the enduring local nomenclature of Bingham County's backcountry.
