About this map

The Boise River forms the central artery of this Idaho landscape, where the growing community of Eagle meets an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure. This 2010 survey documents a dense web of man-made waterways like the Farmers Union Canal, Thurman Mill Canal, and Settlers Canal, which historically transformed the arid Dry Creek Valley into a fertile agricultural corridor.

Social and civic landmarks are prominent throughout the quadrangle, ranging from the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery and Dry Creek Cemetery in the north to the Western Idaho Fairgrounds in the south. Aviation history is written into the terrain at sites like Bradley Field, Strawberry Glen Airport, and the distinctively named Floating Feather Airport. In the south, the expansion of Meridian and Ustick shows the steady transition from rural tracts to suburban development, while surviving structures like the Thurman Mill anchor the map to its industrial past.
