About this map

The Craters of the Moon National Preserve dominates the western portion of this landscape, marking a stark geological boundary where the volcanic terrain of the Wapi Flow meets the agricultural grid of the Snake River Plain. This intersection of wilderness and irrigation-based farming is defined by a dense network of section-line roads, such as Quigley Rd and Breding Rd, which partition the land for modern use. In the northeast, the terrain rises toward the Power and Bingham County line, while Pleasant Valley occupies the central eastern region. The transition from the rugged basalt flows to the settled valley is traced by local routes like Center Pleasant Valley Rd and Russett Rd, illustrating the persistence of rural development right up to the edge of Idaho's protected volcanic fields.
