About this map

Pocatello and Chubbuck dominate the southern half of this landscape, showcasing the dense residential street grids and commercial development along the Portneuf River corridor. The geography is defined by a sharp transition from the valley floor to the high elevations of the Pocatello Range in the east, where features like Bluebird Ravine and Pocatello Bench mark the rising terrain.

North of the primary urban centers, the landscape shifts toward an intricate irrigation network essential for the region's agricultural productivity. Labels such as the Fort Hall Main Canal, Poplar Lateral, and Panther Lateral trace the movement of water across the plains near Fort Hall and Tyhee. This 2017 survey also documents the integration of transit and natural drainage, where the Two and a Half Mile Cr and Little Pocatello Cr descend from the mountains toward the settled valley.
