About this map

The Snake River winds across the northern landscape of this region, feeding an intricate network of waterways essential to the local valley economy. Irrigation is the dominant theme of the terrain, visible through the density of man-made channels like the Parks Lewisville Canal, Burgess Canal, and Garfield Ucon Canal. These systems support the established communities of Rigby, Annis, and Garfield, where the grid of county roads follows the linear path of the water.

Evidence of the area's geological and infrastructure development is found in landmarks like the Little Buttes and the Rigby Airport. The eastern edge is defined by the N Yellowstone Hwy, tracing a path near Lorenzo and connecting the rural agricultural tracts to the regional corridor. This survey documents the highly managed hydrology of the Upper Snake River Plain, where sloughs such as Annis Slough and Bannock Jim Slough intermingle with modern canals.
