About this map

The agrarian landscape of Fremont County is defined by a complex irrigation network and the winding courses of the Teton River, Henrys Fork, and Fall River. In the northern portion of this 2010 survey, the community of Chester sits near the Chester Cemetery and the small airstrip at Bowman Field. To the south, the town of Newdale serves as a hub for the surrounding farmsteads, connected by a grid of rural routes including Hog Hollow Rd and Teton Dam Rd.

This map reveals the critical role of water management in the region, illustrating the intricate path of the Crosscut Canal and the North Branch Fall River Canal as they divert water across the plains. The presence of features like Hog Hollow suggests the natural drainage patterns that these man-made waterways navigate. Genealogists and local historians can trace the proximity of family lands to these vital water sources and the established settlement centers that have anchored this corner of Idaho for generations.
