About this map

C J Strike Reservoir anchors the southern boundary of this high desert landscape, where the confluence of several seasonal drainages meets the dammed waters of the Snake River. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Canyon Creek and Squaw Creek, which cut through the open country south of the Mountain Home area. A network of rural transit corridors, including Simco Rd and Sw Strike Dam Rd, crisscross the region, indicating the logistical connections between local ranching operations and the reservoir's infrastructure. The presence of a Landing Strip and Gravel Pit Rd suggests a landscape of active utility and resource management, characteristic of this portion of Elmore and Ada counties in the early twenty-first century.
