1955 Map of Rose

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Snake River dominates the southeastern portion of this mid-1950s Bingham County landscape, where complex irrigation networks have transformed the terrain. A dense system of waterways including the Aberdeen-Springfield Canal, Great Western Canal, and Peoples Canal illustrates the intensive agricultural development of the Snake River Plain. These canals weave through the lowlands, utilizing structures such as a Siphon and Flume to move water toward local settlements like Rose and Jensen. To the north, the topography shifts dramatically toward an expansive area of Lava, marked by numerous Well points and the Boise Base Line. The map also documents essential community infrastructure of the era, such as the Lavaside Sch and the Weggland school, alongside the Union Pac railroad corridor that supported the regional economy.
