About this map

Bruneau Dunes State Park anchors the southern portion of this landscape, where the Idaho desert meets the engineered waters of the Snake River system. Edited in 1992, this sheet documents a complex irrigation and power infrastructure characterized by the C J Strike Reservoir and its associated Aqueduct and Canal systems. The terrain transitions from the high sand formations of the state park through the rugged topography of Flatiron Butte toward the river valley. Conservation interests are central to this area, as seen in the expansive Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area and the Bruneau Duck Ponds. Local landmarks like Wilkins Island and Rattlesnake Springs provide historical points of reference for researchers tracing the geography of the Elmore and Owyhee county line.
