2013 Map of Rexburg

About this map

Rexburg serves as the focal point of this Eastern Idaho landscape, defined by a sophisticated network of irrigation and water management at the confluence of the South Teton River and Henrys Fork. The presence of Brigham Young University-Idaho and the Rexburg-Madison County Airport indicates the city's significant regional growth and infrastructure in the early twenty-first century. Surrounding the urban center are smaller agricultural communities such as Sugar City, Salem, and Hibbard, many of which are linked by an intricate system of canals including the Teton Island Canal and Rexburg Canal. To the south, the terrain transitions into the wetlands and sloughs of the Texas Slough Canal and Reid Canal near Thornton. This survey details the agrarian roots and modern expansion of the Snake River Plain, where older landmarks like Rexburg Cem and Burton Cem sit alongside contemporary residential developments and transportation corridors like the N Yellowstone Hwy.
