1964 Map of Hunt

About this map

Hunt serves as the primary named settlement in this mid-1960s landscape, an area defined by the intricate engineering of the Snake River Plain's irrigation systems. The map captures a sophisticated network of water management, most notably the Milner Gooding Canal and the North Main Canal, which dictate the local topography and agricultural potential. Water infrastructure is detailed down to specific functional components, including a Siphon and a Spillway Elev 4012 associated with the Wilson Lake Reservoir. Beyond the canals, the terrain is marked by several Gravel Pits and a Gravel Pit, suggesting local industrial activity or road construction material sourcing during this era. To the north, a Jeep Trail traverses the more open ground, while Goose Lake provides a natural contrast to the man-made reservoir and canal system.
