Sheep Rock - Oregon/California National Historic Trail

Sheep Rock, also known as Soda Point, towers 1200 feet above the waters of the Bear River. It was a landmark to emigrants on the Oregon and California Trail who wrote about it in their journals. Sheep Rock lies on public lands managed by the Idaho Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Pocatello Field Office. If you happen to be in the area, stop at the Historic Byway site located on BLM-managed land just off the highway, approximately 5 miles west of Soda Springs, Idaho. Here you can read the interpretive signs and also get an up-close look at Sheep Rock and the Bear River. Additional Note: Utah Power & Light (mentioned in the video) was a predecessor to Rocky Mountain Power. Like BLM Idaho on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/BLMIdaho.
