1971 Map of Letha
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
The Payette River carves through the Lower Payette Valley, defining a landscape heavily modified by early 1970s irrigation systems. This network of water management is anchored by the Emmett Irrigation District Canal and the Farmers Cooperative Canal, which feed the agricultural plots of the Emmett Bench. The Union Pacific railroad corridor parallels the river, connecting the small settlement of Letha and the nearby Little Rock to the wider region. Family-named infrastructure and landmarks provide a detailed look at local development, including Falk Bridge and Church Road. Educational and community centers are represented by Cooper School and Hanna Sch, while the presence of the Falk Cem and numerous named gulches like Graveyard Gulch offer clear markers for those researching the genealogy and geographic history of Gem and Payette Counties.
