1966 Map of Etna

About this map

Star Valley dominates this 1960s landscape, where the meandering Salt River defines the border between Idaho and Wyoming. The settlement of Etna serves as the primary hub for this agricultural and timber region, situated near the western edge of the Salt River Range. To the west, the steep elevations of the Caribou National Forest are marked by a network of drainage systems like Jackknife Creek and Raymond Creek, alongside a series of specialized routes including the Mountain Trail, Pack Trail, and Jeep Trail. Water management is central to the valley's economy, evidenced by the East Side Canal, several unnamed Ditch segments, and a Powerplant located near the northern border. Recreational and logistical features like Tincup Campground and a Gaging Station reflect the dual use of the land for federal forest management and local ranching during the mid-20th century.
