2013 Map of American Falls

About this map

American Falls serves as the focal point of this Power County survey, situated on the southern banks of the American Falls Reservoir. The map documents a landscape defined by water management and transit, where the Main E Canal, Main W Canal, and numerous laterals like Lateral P weave through the terrain to support regional agriculture. On the outskirts of town, the Power County Fairgrounds and American Falls Airport mark the community's infrastructure, while the Falls View Cem sits near the western edge of the settlement. To the north, the reservoir shoreline is punctuated by Fenstermaker Point, while the southern landscape rises toward Paps Mtn and Lone Rock. This area reflects a mid-twentieth-century Idaho settlement pattern where modern highways and air travel intersect with older geological markers and a sophisticated network of irrigation canals.
