1956 Map of Reverse

About this map

The Union Pacific railroad and the Old Oregon Trail Highway converge at the small settlement of Reverse, providing a look at the historical transit corridor through Elmore County. This map, based on mid-1950s data with later revisions, shows a landscape defined by industrial infrastructure and natural landmarks. Multiple Pipeline corridors cross the terrain, while water features like the Hot Springs Creek Reservoir and Commerford Springs indicate the vital role of water management in this arid region. The presence of Eureka Cave and the VABM Brush 3291 survey marker offer specific points of interest for those tracking local topography and geologic features. The layout of the roads and rail line highlights the geographic constraints and historical paths established by early western migration and the subsequent development of Idaho's transportation network.
