2013 Map of Mud Lake SE

About this map

Holly Canal and Jackett Canal define the irrigation landscape of this eastern Idaho territory, illustrating the intensive management of water resources required for agriculture in Jefferson County. The terrain is organized by an exacting grid of rural roads, including Bott Rd and Roberts Rd, which divide the high desert into predictable parcels. This 2013 survey shows the intersection of several township boundaries, notably where t6n r35e and t6n r36e meet, marking the organized expansion of settlement. While largely defined by these straight-line transport corridors like E 1500 N and Mud Lake Rd, the map also preserves the natural undulations of the landscape between the man-made canals and primary thoroughfares such as N 1825 E.
