About this map

Targhee National Forest dominates the northern landscape where Warm River and Robinson Creek converge. This 2013 survey illustrates the complex water management system of the Snake River Plain, featuring the Yellowstone Canal, Marysville Canal, and Farmers Own Canal as they divert water across the plains south of Hale Canyon. These irrigation works represent a critical layer of the region's agricultural development, supporting rural settlements like Grainville and Squirrel.

To the south, the railroad town of Drummond marks a point of historical transport interest, while the Squirrel Cem preserves local genealogy in the center of the quadrangle. The topography transitions from the canyon-carved timberlands of the forest to the engineered landscape of the high plateau, where isolated outposts like Stephens Fish Creek Ranch and the Warm River Campground cater to those visiting the river's edge. This map documents a modern snapshot of Idaho's intersection between wilderness conservation and intensive water-driven agriculture.
