The Bannock Range is a mountain range situated in southern Idaho, near the Idaho-Utah border.[1] 28 named mountains are located within the boundaries of the range, the tallest sitting at an elevation of 9,300 feet (2,800 m).
The range is located in Southern Idaho,[2] and sits along the Portneuf River to the east and the Bear River to its south. To the north of the range is Pocatello.[3] Large portions of the range are privately owned, and 13% is maintained by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.[4] Two large thrust faults are located in the range, and a gravitational fault exists on its eastern edge.[5][6]
