About this map

The settlement of Hollister serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in the Snake River Plain south of Twin Falls. The land is defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure, including the winding Main Canal, Lateral Number 21, and several other named laterals that supply the gridded fields. To the south, the village of Amsterdam sits along the primary north-south corridor, marking a quiet junction in the high desert terrain.

Water management is prominent throughout the quadrangle, notably at the Deep Creek Reservoir and the associated Deep Creek Number Two Dam. Cultural and recreational landmarks emerge from the sagebrush and farmstead environment, such as the Thunder Bluff Speedway and the Nat-Soo-Pah Warm Spring. These features, alongside drainage systems like Goat Springs Creek and Squaw Joe Canyon, illustrate the 21st-century balance between recreation and the intensive water engineering required to sustain Idaho's high-desert agriculture.
