1953 Map of Montour

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Payette River carves through the heart of this Gem County landscape, dominated by the waters of the Black Canyon Reservoir and the Black Canyon Dam. The settlement at Emmett serves as a primary hub in the west, while the smaller communities of Montour and Sweet are found further east along the river and Squaw Creek. This era of development is defined by the heavy presence of the Union Pacific railroad, which follows the river valley through the Plaza and Fuller areas.
