About this map

The Shoshone River carves a broad valley through the heart of this landscape, separating the intricate agricultural irrigation systems of the north from the high, dissected terrain of the south. In the northern reaches, the town of Powell serves as a hub for the surrounding Powell Flats, where a complex network of man-made waterways like the Garland Canal, Frannie Canal, and numerous laterals support the local ranching and farming economy. This sophisticated water management system stands in sharp contrast to the natural drainage patterns found just across the river.
