1958 Map of Pocatello
USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The Snake River carves a critical path through this Idaho landscape, anchoring an economy of irrigation and power evidenced by the American Falls Reservoir and Lake Walcott Reservoir. The agricultural expansion of the 1950s is visible in the network of canals like the Tyhee Lateral and the St John Ward Canal, which supported burgeoning settlements from Pocatello and Alameda to Burley. To the north, the stark terrain of the Lava beds and formations like Split Butte contrast with the industrial presence of the US Naval Ordnance Plant and the Amalgamated Radio Station.
