2017 Map of Ammon

About this map

Ammon and the eastern edge of Idaho Falls occupy this landscape where the flat expanse of the Snake River Plain meets the rising elevations of Galbraith Hill. The 2017 survey reveals an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the region's agricultural heritage, including the Taylor Extension Canal, Meppen Canal, and the Meppen Spillway. These waterways, alongside the Hillside Canal and Highline Canal, illustrate how water management has historically dictated the settlement patterns and land use in Bonneville County. Institutional landmarks such as the Eastern Idaho Technical College and Ammon Cem provide specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists. To the south, the Rainbow Ranch Airport and the descent into Rock Hollow mark the transition from suburban development to the varied terrain of the Snake River Valley.
