About this map

Sand Hollow serves as the focal point for this agrarian landscape in Payette County, defined by a complex network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the high desert valley. The map documents the intricate path of the Farmers Cooperative Canal and the various branches of the C-Line Canal, including the C-Line Canal East and C-Line Canal West. These waterways, alongside the Sand Hollow Wasteway, underscore the engineered nature of the local environment, where water management dictated settlement patterns and land use.

Rural intersections such as Jenness and Amsco provide historical anchors within the grid of section roads. Transportation routes like Old Hwy 30 and Goodson Rd connect these outlying areas, while the presence of Sand Hollow Creek offers a glimpse into the natural drainage system that predates the intensive canal development. Genealogists and local historians can trace the development of this agricultural corridor through family-named landmarks like Cemetery Rd and El Paso Rd.
