1937 Map of Michaud

USGS Topo · Published 1937

About this map

The Fort Hall Indian Reservation dominates the landscape of this mid-1930s survey, illustrating a critical junction of historical and modern transportation in Power County. The Old Oregon Trail runs parallel to the Union Pacific railroad and U S Highway No 30 N, tracing a route past the small settlements of Michaud and Schiller. This corridor reflects the transition from pioneer wagon paths to the burgeoning automobile era, anchored by the Pocatello Airport and its Airway Beacon in the east. Along the northern edge, the expansive American Falls Reservoir meets the Portneuf River, while the interior terrain is marked by significant cultural landmarks such as the Indian Sch and multiple Indian Cem sites. The map captures a moment when traditional land use on the Michaud Flats existed alongside federal infrastructure projects and the rising aviation network of southern Idaho.
