1949 Map of Roberts
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
The town of Roberts serves as the focal point for this 1940s landscape where agriculture and transport intersect in eastern Idaho. The Union Pacific railroad line and U.S. 91 parallel each other along the eastern edge, providing the primary lifelines for the region. The map reveals an intricate water management system essential for high-desert farming, featuring the Market Lake Canal, Poitevin Ditch, and Mc Carthy Ditch. These man-made channels diverge from Taylor Slough, carving through a terrain marked by distinctive volcanic features like Kettle Butte and a network of siphons and drains.
