1985 Map of Northeast Emmett

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Payette River carves through the heart of this Gem County landscape, defining the agricultural and industrial character of the region in the mid-1980s. The town of Emmett sits at the southwestern edge of the valley, just south of the distinctive Emmett Bench. Irrigation is central to the area's development, evidenced by the extensive reach of the Last Chance Canal and the Canyon Canal, which draw from the river to support the Emmett Valley farmland. To the east, the Black Canyon Reservoir dominates the canyon narrows, bounded by steep terrain including Squaw Butte. This provisional survey preserves the location of smaller settlements like Plaza and geographic features such as Fuller Island and Ross Island, providing a clear look at the water-management infrastructure that sustained these Idaho communities before further modern expansion.
