2013 Map of Shoshone SE

About this map

Milner Gooding Canal arcs through this high desert terrain, illustrating the critical role of 20th-century irrigation in shaping the landscape of Southern Idaho. The sheet covers the transition between Jerome and Lincoln Counties, where the geometric grid of the Public Land Survey System meets the sinuous path of large-scale water projects. The presence of the N Side Main Canal in the southwestern corner further emphasizes the region's reliance on managed water for agriculture and settlement. Local transit is defined by a strictly aligned road network, including arterial routes like Dietrich Butte Rd and numbered county lines such as E 400 N and E 300 N. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the engineering required to sustain this arid region, showing the relationship between county boundaries and the life-giving canal systems.
