About this map

Old Clover Creek Rd provides the primary passage through this high desert plateau, crossing the boundary between Elmore and Gooding counties. The landscape is defined by its vital water sources, with numerous named springs such as Echo Spring, Cedar Tree Spring, and Dead Horse Spring supporting life and movement through the drainage basins of Clover Creek and Hog Creek.

Evidence of irrigation development is found in the south, where Lateral Y-9 and Warm Spring indicate water management near the base of the rising terrain. The topographic detail reveals a network of seasonal washes, including Thorn Creek and Dry Creek, which have carved deep contours into the land. This survey provides a modern view of the ranching and resource-based infrastructure of the region as it existed in 2017, highlighting the sparse but critical named landmarks that define this Idaho interior.
