About this map

Snake River serves as the defining geographic and political boundary in this 2017 survey, separating Malheur County, Oregon, from Canyon and Owyhee Counties in Idaho. The settlement of Adrian sits at a vital crossing point, where the river's path is interrupted by islands such as Suzy Island and Hettinger Island. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of agricultural irrigation, visible through numerous water-management features like the Riverside Canal, Golden Gate Canal, and the Five and Seventeenths Canal.

South of the Big Bend of the river, the terrain transitions into more industrial infrastructure, specifically the Owyhee Tunnel Rd and associated landmarks like Tunnel Number 5 and Tunnel Number 6. The inclusion of the Coyote Gulch Siphon near Coyote Gulch highlights the engineering required to move water across this arid high-desert environment. This map provides a detailed view of the borderlands where the Arena Valley and Deer Flat regions meet the river's fertile corridor.
