2020 Map of Yahoo Creek

About this map

Salmon Falls Creek carves a deep, winding path through the southeastern corner of this Idaho landscape, creating the dramatic topography of Sinking Canyon. This rugged canyon contrast sharply with the relatively level expanse of the Bruneau Desert that dominates the central portion of the map. Water management is a primary theme of the era, seen in the engineered path of the Magic Water Canal and the presence of scattered water sources like Coyote Spring and Rings Springs. The road network follows the grid system of the Public Land Survey, with routes such as 4700 North Rd and 500 East Rd dividing the desert into square sections. The Yahpo Cr drainage system flows through the northern reaches, while older arterial routes like Crows Nest Rd and the Castleford Glennis Ferry Rd provide connection across the sagebrush-covered plains of Twin Falls County.
