About this map

Targhee National Forest and Caribou National Forest meet in this mountainous corner of Bonneville County, where the northern boundary touches the edges of Palisades Reservoir. The landscape is dominated by a series of prominent summits including Poker Peak, Thunder Mountain, and Black Mountain, linked by a network of forest roads and trails such as Poker Peak road and the Herman-McCoy route. Drainage patterns are defined by numerous creeks like Big Spring Cr and McCoy Cr that carve through the high terrain.

Local landmarks such as Jensen Meadow and Moose Pond offer specific points of reference within the protected forest lands. The presence of routes like Bear Creek-Elk Jensen and Squaw Creek indicates a long-standing history of forest access and resource management. This survey provides a clear look at the topographic relief of Bald Mountain and the distinct geography of Little Box Canyon during the early 21st century.
