2013 Map of Ucon

About this map

Idaho Falls anchors the southwest corner of this landscape, where the urban grid gives way to an intricate system of agricultural irrigation. The area is defined by a dense network of man-made waterways, including the Farmers Friend Canal, Centerville Canal, and Anderson Canal, which distribute water across the eastern Snake River Plain. Small rural clusters like Ucon, Iona, and Lincoln illustrate the pattern of development around these crucial water sources. The transition from the developed city center to the surrounding agricultural lands is marked by features like Beachs Corner and the Lincoln Cemetery. To the east, the terrain begins to rise toward the foothills, where the Hillside Canal and Gardner Canal navigate more complex topography. This survey captures a moment of modern growth in Bonneville County, showing how historical irrigation infrastructure continues to shape the expansion of these Idaho communities.
