About this map

Fort Hall Bottoms dominates the central portion of this landscape, where the Snake River branches into a complex network of wetlands and seasonal channels. This intricate riparian system is defined by numerous smaller watercourses such as Jeff Cabin Cr and Big Jimmy Creek, which thread through the floodplain before reaching the main stem. The higher ground surrounding the river valley is marked by distinctive geological features like Ferry Butte in the northeast and Cedar Butte to the southeast, providing sharp elevation changes against the flat wetlands.

Agricultural development in the region is clearly visible through an extensive irrigation network that includes the Aberdeen Springfield Canal, Peoples Canal, and Gibson Canal. The small settlement of Pingree serves as a local hub in the northwest, situated at the intersection of rural routes like Cammack Rd and W 600 S. This map captures the intersection of natural river dynamics and the human-engineered water systems required for high-desert farming near the Bingham and Bannock county line.
