2020 Map of Ammon

About this map

Ammon and the eastern outskirts of Idaho Falls occupy a landscape defined by an intricate network of irrigation engineering on the Snake River Plain. This 2020 survey details the extensive water management system necessary for the region's agricultural and municipal growth, featuring the Meppen Canal, Gardner Canal, and Hillside Canal. The transition from urban street grids to the rugged breaks of the high country is evident as the terrain rises toward Black Canyon and Galbraith Hill. Local institutional history is anchored by the College of Eastern Idaho in the northwest, while the Ammon Cem and the Rainbow Ranch Airport serve as distinct landmarks within the shifting boundaries of residential development and open range. The topography reveals a series of natural basins and ridges, including Rock Hollow and the Sand Hills, illustrating the geological character of Bonneville County.
