About this map

Picabo Hills dominate the northwest corner of this high-desert Idaho landscape, where the northern edge of the Snake River Plain meets the foothills. The settlement of Tikura sits along the eastern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a primary point of interest for local historians and genealogists tracking the development of Blaine and Lincoln counties. The Blaine Co Lincoln Co boundary line bisects the territory horizontally, marking the shift in jurisdictional oversight across this open range.

Water management and transportation define the human presence here. The Little Wood River and Silver Cr flow through the eastern and southern sectors, with the Pagari Bridge providing a critical crossing point in the south. The infrastructure is a mix of early routes and modern needs, visible through the mapping of the Old State Hwy and Old Hwy, alongside the utilitarian Desert Rd and the localized Ditch Spring.
