2017 Map of Wolverine

About this map

Wolverine marks a central point of activity within the Blackfoot Mountains of southeast Idaho, where the high desert meets the northern slopes of the range. The landscape is defined by its dramatic drainages, most notably Wolverine Canyon and the winding course of Wolverine Cr. To the west, the sharp descent of Rattlesnake Canyon and the high elevation of Taylor Mtn overlook a network of seasonal watercourses and ridges. Modern access is maintained through a few critical arteries like Wolverine Rd and Taylor Creek Rd, tracing routes that likely follow long-established paths through the terrain. Evidence of the region's geographical character is found in descriptive names such as The Narrows and Saw Log Basin, which suggest the historic land use and physical constraints encountered by early travelers and surveyors in Bingham County.
