About this map

The Little Malad River flows through the heart of the Malad Valley, anchoring a landscape defined by its irrigation infrastructure and rural settlements. On the eastern edge of this 2017 survey, Malad City serves as the regional hub, supported by the Malad City Airport and a grid of local roads like Bannock St and Samaria Ln. To the north, the Saint Johns Reservoir and the community of Saint Johns mark the transition toward the higher elevations of the Caribou National Forest.

Southward, the valley floor opens into a series of smaller agricultural nodes including Pleasantview and Gwenford. Hydrological features are the primary points of interest for local history, including Big Malad Spring and the Pleasantview Warm Springs. The distribution of water is further managed through the Billy Snipe Reservoir and Lower Pleasantview Reservoir, illustrating the critical role of water management in the development of this Idaho interior.
