2017 Map of Split Top

About this map

Split Top rises as a prominent landmark in this high-desert landscape along the border of Bingham and Blaine Counties. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a region defined by scattered water sources and reservoirs essential for land management. Notable water features include the Clear Lake Reservoir and the twin Houghland Reservoir Number 1 and Houghland Reservoir Number 2 to the northwest. The terrain is punctuated by significant volcanic or erosional features like Packsaddle Butte, while smaller water bodies such as Packsaddle Lake, Wild Horse Lake, and Gentle Horse Lake are distributed across the high plains. The map's detail provides a clear view of the complex hydrography and public land survey system divisions that govern this section of Idaho.
