1968 Map of Lava Hot Springs
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Lava Hot Springs occupies a strategic bend of the Portneuf River in this late-1960s survey, where the valley floor meets the rising peaks of the Portneuf Range. The town's layout reflects its dual identity as a railroad stop on the Union Pacific and a developing recreational hub, featuring a Golf Course and numerous hot springs facilities. Outside the town center, the map reveals a rugged landscape defined by water and transit, from the Lava Hot Springs Cem overlooking the valley to the complex network of mountain drainages like Dempsey Creek and Beaverdam Creek. The inclusion of the Treaty Boundary Road and various family-named features such as Christenson Spring and Chatterton Spring provides essential details for those tracing local homesteads or the shifting historical boundaries of southeastern Idaho.
