2020 Map of Swan Lake

About this map

Swan Lake sits as the focal point of this corridor, where the water and surrounding wetlands like Oxford Slough transition into the steep elevations of the Portneuf Range. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the irrigated valley floor and the high ridgelines of Dry Hollow Mtn and Heart Mtn. Settlement patterns follow the topography, with Poverty Flats occupying the lower reaches near the Bannock Co Franklin Co line. Water management is central to the area's geography, evidenced by the Treasureton Canal and various springs such as Heart Mountain Spring and Dry Hollow Spring. A network of rural roads including Stockton Rd and Coulam Rd provides access to the complex canyon systems of Hutchins Canyon and the numerous hollows that cut through the eastern mountains.
