About this map

Poker Peak and the high ridges of the Caribou Range define this portion of the Caribou National Forest in Bonneville County. The landscape is a network of drainage systems and primitive trails that reflect a century of forest management and backcountry use. High-elevation points like Black Mtn and Chicken Ridge overlook a complex watershed where McCoy Creek and Jensen Creek descend toward the northeast.

Evidence of the region's recreational and historical infrastructure is visible in the numerous marked paths, including the Thunder Mountain Trl and Moose Pond Trl. In the far northeast corner, the edge of Palisades Reservoir appears, marking the transition from the high-country peaks to the managed water systems of the Snake River basin. Notable clearings like Jensen Meadow provide specific landmarks for those tracing the history of local grazing or early forest service activity in this mountain terrain.
