About this map

Raft River Valley opens across this Idaho landscape in the late 1960s, defined by its water systems and the infrastructure of the high desert. The Raft River itself meanders through the central basin, joined by Warm Creek as it flows through a region largely dedicated to ranching and utility transport. Evidence of mid-century industrial growth is visible in the network of pipelines crossing the valley floor and the presence of a Substation near the southern boundary. The landscape is marked by numerous extraction sites, including various Borrow Pits and a Gravel Pit, which supported the development of local thoroughfares like the Idaho Road. This survey documents a transition in the rural West where traditional water-dependent agriculture met the rising demands of energy infrastructure and modernized transport.
