1964 Map of Milner

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Snake River water management dominates the landscape of this southern Idaho region during the mid-1960s, centered on the critical infrastructure at Milner. The map captures the complex irrigation network born from the Milner Dam, including the North Side Main Canal, Main Canal, and Milner Gooding Canal. This system transforms the arid plains around Hazelton Butte, supporting small settlements like Greenwood and McHenry. The Union Pacific railroad parallels the river and canals, providing the vital transportation link for this agricultural economy. Local history is preserved in the location of the Cem near the riverbank and the small loading point at Parsons. The topographic detail reveals the engineering required to move water across this terrain, featuring various siphons, flumes, and the B-1 Ditch that feed into the larger reservoirs like Wilson Lake Reservoir.
