2013 Map of Laidlaw Lake

About this map

Craters of the Moon National Preserve dominates the eastern and southern reaches of this landscape, marking the transition from the high desert plains of the Snake River Valley into volcanic terrain. The area is defined by a complex network of seasonal water sources and managed catchments, essential for supporting the agricultural and ranching operations at Laidlaw Corrals. These water features range from natural pools like Laidlaw Lake and Mac Rae Lake to man-made structures including Bluebird Reservoir and Bugler Reservoir. The presence of the Laidlaw Corrals Airport and the boundary between Lincoln and Minidoka counties underscores the remote but organized nature of the land. Roadways like Laidlaw Park Rd and Shale Butte Rd provide the primary access through this dry, high-elevation environment.
