2013 Map of Lincoln Creek

About this map

Lincoln Creek Valley serves as the focal point of this Bingham County landscape, where the transition between the flat river bottoms and the rising eastern foothills is sharply defined. The Blackfoot River meanders through the northwest, supported by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the region's agricultural character. This system includes the Reservation Canal, W Br Snake River Valley Canal, and the E Br Blackfoot Canal, alongside numerous family-named or local waterworks like Hanson Ditch and Taylor Ditch. The eastern half of the map is dominated by high-relief terrain, where drainages such as Lincoln Cr, Cold Cr, and Garden Creek carve through the slopes. Historically significant routes like Little Indian Rd and Lincoln Creek Rd provide the primary access through this sparsely settled valley, connecting isolated homesteads to the broader Snake River plain.
