2010 Map of Salmon Butte

About this map

Salmon Falls Creek Reservoir dominates this landscape in southern Idaho, serving as a critical water source for the surrounding high desert agricultural lands. Managed by the Salmon Falls Dam at its northern end, the reservoir's waters are diverted into an intricate irrigation network featuring the Main Canal and various distributors like A Lateral. The terrain is defined by dramatic changes in elevation, from the depths of Antelope Canyon and McCongle Canyon to the prominent peak of Salmon Butte. While much of the area is dedicated to large-scale water management and open range, small points of human activity are noted at Greys Landing on the reservoir shore and the Point Ranch further east. Remote access through this territory is maintained by local routes such as Three Creek Rd and 1520 North Rd.
