About this map

Givens Hot Springs sits at the heart of this landscape along the southwestern bank of the Snake River, serving as a focal point for local history and recreation. The geography is defined by the river’s winding course and the numerous islands it carves out, including Fischer Island, Raccoon I, and Rippee Island. On the opposite bank, the terrain rises toward Pickles Butte and the dramatic cuts of Deadhorse Canyon.

The infrastructure reflects the vital role of water management in this arid region, with an extensive network featuring the Mora Canal, Opalene Ditch, and several pumping stations. Cultural landmarks such as Map Rock and the Bernard Ferry (Site) provide tangible links to early transportation and indigenous presence along the river. The mix of agricultural features like Storage Bins and residential pockets like Hidden Valley illustrates the shift toward contemporary land use during the early 1990s.
