About this map

Bray Lake Ranch and the surrounding high-desert landscape of Gooding County are defined by a complex network of seasonal water sources and rural cattle infrastructure. In this 2010 depiction, the reliance on springs and reservoirs is evident, with named features such as Rattler Reservoir, Reager Waterhole, and Coyote Hill Spring punctuating the arid terrain. The map captures a transition between the elevated topography of Honey Spring Canyon and the more level reaches of Ferguson Flat to the east.

Transportation throughout this section of Idaho follows a sparse grid, dominated by the north-south artery of Hill City Rd and the crossing of Clover Creek Rd. Hydrological landmarks like White Arrow Hot Spring and Lye Lake sit near the confluence of local drainages, while the Bray Lake Dam manages the eponymous Bray Lake in the southeast, illustrating the managed water system essential for ranching in this environment.
