About this map

The high desert agricultural lands of Bonneville and Jefferson counties are defined by a complex irrigation network, including the Farmers Friend Canal, Anderson Canal, and Eagle Rock Canal. These engineered waterways support the high-altitude farming operations visible at the Milo Dry Farm and throughout the northern half of the map. The terrain transitions from flat, irrigated fields near the Swan Valley Hwy to the steep, dissected ridges of the southeastern corner, where the waters of the Ririe Reservoir are contained. Genealogists and local historians can locate early burial sites at Milo Cem and Ririe Cem, which sit alongside established rural routes like Blacktail Rd and Bone Rd. The landscape demonstrates the long-term reliance on water management to sustain settlement in this part of eastern Idaho.
