2020 Map of Lincoln Creek

About this map

Lincoln Creek Valley serves as a geographic centerpiece where the high desert terrain of Bingham County meets an intricate network of early 21st-century water management. The landscape is defined by the Blackfoot River and its various distributaries, including the Blackfoot Slough and Lincoln Cr. This 2020 survey illustrates how the high country is partitioned for irrigation, with named infrastructure like the Reservation Canal, Little Indian Ditch, and the E Br Blackfoot Canal cutting across the valley floor. Rural transport follows the drainage patterns, with Little Indian Rd and Lincoln Creek Rd providing access to the more isolated eastern reaches. The map details a transition from the structured canal systems of the western plains to the natural drainage of Cold Cr and Garden Cr in the rising hills of the Fort Hall Indian Reservation area.
