1934 Map of American Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The American Falls Dam anchors this mid-century landscape, holding back the waters of the American Falls Reservoir along the Snake River. This 1930s survey, updated in the 1950s, reveals a high-desert environment transformed by complex irrigation systems, including the High Line Canal and Low Line Canal, which supported the Agricultural Experiment Sta near Aberdeen. The industrial and transport importance of the region is evident through the path of the Union Pacific railroad and the various transmission lines cutting through the terrain.
