About this map

Eagle and the northern reaches of Boise are defined by a complex network of irrigation and water management systems. The Boise River bifurcates around Eagle Island, while numerous laterals and canals such as the Farmers Union Canal, Thurman Mill Canal, and Settlers Canal crisscross the valley floor, reflecting the region's agricultural heritage and ongoing water rights distribution. The landscape transitions from the river bottom to the foothills, marked by features like Dry Creek Valley and Seaman Gulch.

Cultural landmarks and community infrastructure are well-documented, including the Idaho State Veterans Cem and the Boise Bible Coll. Significant crossings like the Eagle Bridge and Strawberry Glen Bridge provide vital links between the developing residential areas and the natural riparian corridor of the Boise River Greenbelt. This survey captures the suburban growth expanding from Meridian and Ustick into the surrounding hills and plains.
