About this map

Irrigation infrastructure and precise grid-based road planning define this portion of Teton County, where the Main Canal and a complex series of lateral drains support the agricultural landscape. The small settlement of Greenfield sits at the southwestern edge of the sheet, connected to the wider region by the Burlington Northern railroad, which follows the winding course of Muddy Creek. To the northeast, the location of Cordova appears along the same rail line, illustrating the importance of transport for these high-plains communities.

The terrain is marked by distinct geographical steps known as the Third Bench and Second Bench, which rise above the surrounding drainage basins. Deep coulees like Spring Coulee and Cascade Coulee cut through the landscape, creating natural breaks in the orderly grid of local routes such as First Road North through Seventh Road North. This 1983 survey provides a clear view of the region's managed water systems and the family-named landmark Plummer Thompson.
