Cassia Creek


Cassia Creek is a stream in Cassia County, Idaho, United States, that is a tributary of the Raft River.

Description

Rising in the Albion Mountains within the Sawtooth National Forest Cassia Creek flows easterly to quickly leave the national forest and then pass along the western edge of the unincorporataed community of Elba. It then flows northeasterly between the Albion Mountains and the Jim Sage Mountains, roughly paralleling Idaho State Highway 77 Spur, until it passes south of the unincorporated community of Connor.
From Connor, the creek flows easterly again out of the mountains and into the Raft River Valley as it roughly parallels Idaho State Highway 77. The creek then flows northeasterly in the Raft River Valley to pass along the southeastern edge of city of Malta. Finally, it flows northerly through agricultural land in the Raft River Valley to its mouth on the Raft River, about north-northeast of Malta.
Most of Cassia Creek is along a section of the California Trail. The creek is a recommended fishing water by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game.
