2016 Map of Mount Hope

About this map

Mount Hope and Mount Ida anchor this high-elevation landscape in Grant County, where the topography is defined by the prominent Military Ridge and the steep dissections of Foxboro Hollow. The region’s drainage patterns are complex, with the Little Green River and Little Grant River carving through the plateau while smaller tributaries like Martin Br and Blake Fork define the local valleys. This late-modern survey preserves the locations of several burial grounds essential for family history research, including Casler Cem south of Mount Hope and Borah Cem near Mount Ida. A dense network of local roads, such as Breezy Hill Rd and Meadowbrook Ln, connects the scattered farmsteads across Irish Ridge and Little Irish Ridge, reflecting the area's enduring agricultural character and the way its transportation routes have long been dictated by the high divides and narrow hollows.
