About this map

Sheridan Reservoir and the surrounding high country of the Targhee National Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape along the Clark and Fremont County line. The terrain transitions from the steep southern slopes of the Centennial Mountains into a complex network of wetlands and drainage basins. High-elevation hydrology is well-defined here, with Sheridan Creek, Taylor Creek, and Howard Creek feeding the local basin.

Evidence of historical transit and land management is visible in the alignment of Old Hwy 22 and the Kilgore-Yale Road, which provide access to the ridge-and-valley system. The map identifies remote features such as Bishop Well and Davis Lake, alongside specific Forest Service infrastructure like Kick Creek Spur 1. These details offer a precise view of the remote backcountry and its resource-management framework in the early twenty-first century.
