About this map

The Boise River valley anchors this detailed 1981 survey, documenting the expanding urban footprints of Boise, Meridian, and Nampa during a period of significant growth. The map illustrates a complex hydraulic landscape where the Snake River and Payette River meet an intricate network of irrigation and drainage features like the Dixie Drain and Middleton Slough. To the west, the Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge surrounds the prominent Lake Lowell, while the northeast is defined by the rising elevations of the Boise Ridge within the Boise National Forest.
