About this map

The Lava flows of the Snake River Plain dominate this landscape, illustrating the complex geological boundary where Blaine, Lincoln, and Minidoka counties meet. At the center of this volcanic terrain rises Laidlaw Butte, a prominent landmark surrounded by a network of seasonal water sources and specialized agricultural infrastructure. The presence of numerous small reservoirs, such as Baird Reservoir, Carpenter Reservoir, and Carraway Reservoir, points to the critical importance of water management for ranching in this arid environment during the early 1970s.
