1990 Map of Rosevere Point

About this map

The Sawtooth Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape along the border of Cassia and Box Elder Counties, where the Idaho and Utah state line intersects the Sawtooth National Forest. This 1990 provisional survey documents a terrain defined by steep ridges and complex drainages, including Rice Canyon, Italian Canyon, and Dunn Canyon. Of significant interest to historians is the presence of the Emigrant Trail cutting through the northern section, marking a historic corridor of western movement. At higher elevations, distinctive landmarks like Rosevere Point and Pinnacle overlook a network of alpine water sources such as Bull Lake, Rosevere Lake, and Hidden Spring. The map also captures the local headwaters for the Raft River system, including the Left Hand Fork and Middle Fork.
