2017 Map of Bellevue

About this map

The Big Wood River valley serves as the central artery for this 2017 survey, where the established communities of Hailey and Bellevue anchor the agricultural and residential landscape of Idaho's Wood River Valley. The settlement at Broadford and the grid of Bellevue’s residential streets contrast with the rising terrain of Cowcatcher Ridge and the numerous gulches that define the area's geography. A complex network of irrigation infrastructure, including the Hiawatha Canal, Cove Canal, and District Canal, illustrates the region's managed water system essential for sustaining Poverty Flat. Named landmarks such as Minnie Moore Gulch and Croesus Gulch reflect the area's heritage, while modern features like the Sluder Airstrip and the Wood River Path show the evolving land use. The topography transitions from the river's floodplains to prominent high points like Mabelle Hill and Rocky Butte.
