1964 Map of Perrine

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Agricultural development in southern Jerome Co. is clearly defined in the mid-1960s by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure. The North Side Main Canal and the D 5 Ditch dominate the landscape, supported by a Diversion Dam and the No 4 Pumping Station to move water through this arid region. The small settlement of Perrine serves as a central point along the Union Pacific railroad line, which cuts diagonally across the terrain, providing a vital link for local transport and commerce. Scattered throughout the quadrangle are several Gravel Pits and numerous Wells, indicating the ongoing extraction of local resources and the heavy reliance on groundwater to supplement the canal system. This map captures a specific stage of Idaho's reclamation history, where rail and water engineered the transition of the desert into productive land.
