About this map

The agricultural landscape of the Magic Valley defines this region west of Twin Falls, where the desert has been transformed by a vast irrigation network. Gravity-fed water systems like the Low Line Canal and High Line Canal dictate the local geography, supporting the established town of Filer and the smaller junctions of Curry, Knull, and Godwin. In the northwest, the terrain transitions at Sucker Flat toward the steep canyon of the Snake River, which marks the boundary between Twin Falls and Jerome counties.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cem clearly marked near the center of the sheet, while the city grid of Filer shows a detailed layout from Main St to Filer Ave W. Water management is further evidenced by Cedar Draw Lake, which sits within the winding path of Cedar Draw as it moves toward the river. This survey captures a moment of modern development where rural farm roads intersect with the growing western outskirts of the regional hub.
