Data Credits

 Idaho Geology Map: J.G. Bond, Geologic Map of Idaho, 1:500,000 scale, 1978; digitized by Idaho Department of Water Resources ; this map's accuracy is limited due to the level of generalization inherent at this scale; it generalizes the geographic distribution of major groups of different rock types, and their areas.
