2013 Map of Moonlight Mountain

About this map

The Pocatello Range dominates the topography of this Idaho landscape, where the terrain rises to the peaks of Moonlight Mtn and Camelback Mtn. This high-altitude region is defined by a complex network of springs and drainage systems that supported local ranching and water management. Named water sources such as Waterhouse Spring, Big Horse Spring, and Snipe Spring are scattered across the slopes, feeding into several vital waterways. These include the N Fork Pocatello Cr and Indian Cr, which carve through the elevations. Along the eastern margins of the map, irrigation and water control are evident through the presence of the Evening Ditch and the Smoke Lateral. Roadways like W Moonlight Mine Rd and N Connell Rd provide access through the mountain passes, tracing paths that reflect the area's historical connection to high-country resource extraction and grazing.
