USGS Topo · Published 1948About this map
Mountain Home serves as the central hub of this late 19th-century landscape, situated along the vital transport artery of the Oregon Short Line Railroad. This reconnaissance-style mapping captures the high desert and rugged canyonlands of Elmore County as they appeared just years after the railroad's arrival transformed the region's economy. To the north, the Boise River carves through the terrain, with the Boise National Forest and Smith Prairie defining the northern reaches of the quadrangle.
