2010 Map of South Chapin Mountain

About this map

The high mountain desert of Cassia County is defined by the intersection of remote ranching outposts and rugged topography. The small settlement of Heglar serves as a focal point in the northeast, where the canyon systems of North Heglar Canyon and South Heglar Canyon converge near the South Heglar Canyon Rd. To the northwest, the Rehn Ranch Landing Area indicates the specialized infrastructure required for this isolated terrain. The landscape is dominated by the prominence of South Chapin Mountain, which rises above a network of seasonal watercourses and springs. Notable water sources such as Shirley Creek, Warm Creek, and Butler Spring reveal the critical points of hydration in an otherwise arid environment, while a grid of rural routes including Johnson Rd and 2950 East Rd provide access to these remote reaches of Idaho.
