Link, Idaho State University, Geosciences Dept. http://www.isu.edu/departments/geology/ Fremont County Fremont County occupies the northeast corner of the Snake River Plain and includes the western fringe of Yellowstone National Park. It is mainly underlain by volcanic rocks associated with the Snake River Plain and Yellowstone hot spot system. Quaternary sediments overlies these volcanic rocks and allow irrigated farming. The windblown St. Anthony sand dunes contain sand blown northeastward from now-dry lakes to the southwest on the Snake River Plain. The Island Park area forms the central part of Fremont County, and consists of the subsided Island Park Caldera, that erupted about 1.2 million years ago to form the Mesa Falls tuff, and then subsided since its underpinnings were withdrawn. As one drives north on the Ashton grade, one ascends the wall of the caldera. The Centennial Mountains, on the north edge of Fremont County, on the border with Montana, form the Continental divide. These mountains contain Paleoproterozoic gneiss basement, overlain by Cambrian through Triassic sedimentary rocks. These Paleozoic rocks are similar to those of the Teton Mountains, and much thinner than those of the Beaverhead Range to the west. On the southeast edge of Fremont County, south of Ashton, flows the Teton River, cut in a steep canyon through 2 million year old Huckleberry Ridge rhyolite welded tuff. It was here, in 1975, that the newly build Teton Dam broke, causing death and destruction downstream toward Newdale, Teton and Rexburg. P.K.

    Dec Teton - 17040204 Idaho 8 Digit Hydrologic Unit Profile February 2008 Introduction The Teton 8-Digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) subbasin contains 700,960 acres. Forty percent of the subbasin is in Teton County, twenty-seven percent is in Madison County and seven percent is in Fremont County, Idaho. Twenty-seven percent is in Teton County, Wyoming. Fifty-four percent of the basin is privately owned and forty-six percent is publicly owned. Forty-one percent of the basin is in shrub, rangeland, grass, pasture or hayland, thirty-five percent of the basin is in forest, water, wetlands, developed or barren, and twenty-four percent is cropland. Elevations range from 11,005 feet in the eastern part of the HUC to 4,814 feet at the basin outlet on the west.

  • The Track of the Yellowstone Hot Spot: Volcanism, Faulting, and Uplift
    Geological Society of America Memoir 179 1992 Chapter 1 The track of the Yellowstone hot spot: Volcanism, faulting, and uplift Kenneth L. Pierce and Lisa A. Morgan US. Geological Survey, MS 913, Box 25046, Federal Center, Denver, Colorado 80225 ABSTRACT The track of the Yellowstone hot spot is represented by a systematic northeast-trending linear belt of silicic, caldera-forming volcanism that arrived at Yel- lowstone 2 Ma, was near American Falls, Idaho about 10 Ma, and started about 16 Ma near the Nevada-Oregon-Idaho border. From 16 to 10 Ma, particularly 16 to 14 Ma, volcanism was widely dispersed around the inferred hot-spot track in a region that now forms a moderately high volcanic plateau. From 10 to 2 Ma, silicic volcanism migrated N54OE toward Yellowstone at about 3 cm/year, leaving in its wake the topographic and structural depression of the eastern Snake River Plain (SRP). This <lo-Ma hot-spot track has the same rate and direction as that predicted by motion of the North American plate over a thermal plume fixed in the mantle. The eastern SRP is a linear, mountain- bounded, 90-km-wide trench almost entirely(?) floored by calderas that are thinly cov- ered by basalt flows. The current hot-spot position at Yellowstone is spatially related to active faulting and uplift. Basin-and-range faults in the Yellowstone-SRP region are classified into six types based on both recency of offset and height of the associated bedrock escarpment. The distribution of these fault types permits definition of three adjoining belts of faults and a pattern of waxing, culminating, and waning fault activity.

  • IDAHO ACTION PLAN (V3.0) for Implementing the Department of the Interior Secretarial Order 3362
    IDAHO ACTION PLAN (V3.0) For Implementing the Department of the Interior Secretarial Order 3362: “Improving Habitat Quality in Western Big-Game Winter Range and Migration Corridors” 10 September 2020 PREFACE Secretarial Order No. 3362 (SO3362) (09 February 2018; Appendix B) directs the Department of Interior (DOI) to assist western tribes, private landowners, state fish and wildlife agencies, and state transportation departments with conserving and managing priority big game winter ranges and migration corridors. Per SO3362, the DOI invited state wildlife agencies in 2018 to develop action plans identifying big game priority areas and corresponding management efforts across jurisdictional boundaries. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) and DOI jointly developed Idaho’s first version (V1.0) of the SO3362 Action Plan in 2018, which identified 5 Priority Areas for managing pronghorn, mule deer, and elk winter range and migration habitat (Appendix A and D). V2.0 was prepared in 2019 with support from the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD). This V3.0 was also prepared in coordination with ITD in response to DOI’s 14 April 2020 letter to IDFG (Appendix E) requesting updated Priority Area information. Correspondingly, IDFG views this Action Plan as a living document to be reviewed and updated as needed, for example when new priorities emerge, revised information becomes available, and management efforts are completed. Each version of Idaho’s Action Plan applies best available information to identify current and future needs for managing big game winter range and migration habitat, highlight ongoing and new priority management needs, leverage collaborative resources, and narrow focus to 5 Priority Areas.

  • Case Study #2
    Case Study #2 Teton Regional Land Trust: Protecting and Restoring Priority Habitats Project Summary: Protect and restore key habitats, including 27,000 acres of diverse and productive wetlands for water birds and other wildlife in the rapidly developing Teton River Basin. The land trust has protected nearly 9,000 acres of land through cooperative efforts with private landowners and has begun restoration efforts on over 4,000 acres in the upper Teton River watershed. Regional Setting: The Teton River, flanked by the Teton Range to the east and the Big Hole Mountains to the west, is a tributary of the Henrys Fork of the Snake River in eastern Idaho. Part of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the Teton River Basin encompasses an irreplaceable landscape that provides migratory corridors, breeding habitat and over-wintering lands for upon this wetland/upland complex, including a number of thousands of waterbirds. Development pressure driven by waterfowl and shorebirds identified as priorities in national demand for second homes in this spectacularly scenic area bird conservation plans. The wetlands and nearby grain fields threatens traditional land uses that have sustained high quality provide essential staging habitat for the migratory Rocky wetlands along with local ranching and agricultural communities. Mountain population of greater sandhill cranes. The river corridor provides regionally significant wintering habitat for hundreds of Land Trust Mission: The Teton Regional Land Trust conserves trumpeter swans. Nesting long-billed curlews are found here in agricultural and natural lands and encourages land stewardship greater density than anywhere else in their range. The river itself in the Upper Snake River valley for the benefit of today's is home to a self-sustaining population of the sensitive communities and as a legacy for future generations.
