2011 Map of Ucon

About this map

Idaho Falls and its surrounding agricultural satellite communities appear in high detail at the start of the 21st century. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the region's farming economy, featuring the Garfield Ucon Canal, Farmers Friend Canal, and Ririe Outlet Canal among many others. These man-made waterways crisscross the Snake River Plain, supporting the established settlements of Ucon, Iona, and Milo. To the south, the northern reaches of Lincoln and the Lincoln Cemetery mark the transition toward the larger urban center. Natural watercourses like North Fork Willow Creek and South Fork Willow Creek meander through the grid-like road system, which includes the prominent N Yellowstone Hwy. The map documents the persistent agricultural character of the area even as residential developments expand near Beachs Corner.
