About this map

The small agricultural community of Hollister anchors this Idaho landscape, where a sophisticated network of irrigation channels like the Main Canal, Lateral Number 15, and A Lateral supports the high desert's productivity. To the south, the settlement of Amsterdam sits near the intersection of the gridded road system, marking a period of expansion in Twin Falls County. The geography is defined by its water management, including the Deep Cr Reservoir and Lower Deep Cr Reservoir, which capture the flow of Deep Cr.

Natural landmarks offer a sharp contrast to the straight-line section roads and canals. Squaw Joe Canyon and Hoppers Gulch break the terrain to the east, while the Nat-Soo-Pah Warm Spring provides a unique thermal feature on the landscape. Local historians can trace the development of rural infrastructure through the various numbered laterals and named drainages like Green Cr and Goat Springs Cr that traverse the township boundaries.
