1948 Map of Idaho Falls South

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Snake River defines this landscape, where a sophisticated network of irrigation canals supports agricultural expansion south of Idaho Falls. Engineering feats such as Dam 4672 and Dam 4654 manage the river's flow, feeding the Great Western Canal and Porter Canal to transform the arid surroundings. This 1948 survey shows the city's southward growth, anchored by institutional landmarks like the LDS Temple, Sacred Heart Hospital, and the sprawling Tautphaus Park.
