About this map

Bancroft serves as the primary hub in this corner of southeastern Idaho, situated at the northern edge of Gem Valley. The township's grid is clearly defined by local landmarks like the Bancroft Cem and thoroughfares such as Old Hwy-30. Moving south, the landscape transitions into agricultural irrigation networks, dominated by the West Branch Canal and numerous named springs including Josie Spring and School House Spring.

To the west and south, the high country of the Fish Creek Range and Petticoat Peak looms over the valley floor, cut by steep drainages like Rindlishbaker Canyon and Lundgren Canyon. For those researching family history, the map provides precise locations for the Lund Cem and Old Lund Pioneer Cem near the community of Lund, reflecting the early 21st-century settlement patterns and land use in both Caribou and Bannock counties.
