Salmon serves as the focal point of this Lemhi County survey, situated at the confluence of the Salmon River and the Lemhi River. The town's grid is dense with local administrative and civic markers, including the Lemhi County Courthouse and the nearby Salmon Cem. This location reflects its role as a regional hub, connected to the broader landscape by the Lemhi County Airport to the south. Surrounding the valley, the terrain rises sharply into the Salmon National Forest, characterized by landmarks such as Morning Glory Peak and the branching drainage of Pollard Canyon. In the northern reach, the small settlement of Carmen sits near Carmen Creek, while various irrigation features like the Big Flat Ditch trace the valley floor, illustrating the vital relationship between the river system and local land use. To the west, the Salmon River Mountains dominate the horizon, while the Lemhi Range borders the eastern edge of the valley.
