2020 Map of Hog Creek

About this map

Thorn Cr and Dry Cr carve through the high terrain of this remote portion of southern Idaho, where the landscape is defined by its seasonal water sources and deep drainage patterns. This recent survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a territory marked by numerous named springs, including Echo Spring, Cedar Tree Spring, and Dead Horse Spring, which indicate critical water points in an otherwise arid environment. The border between Elmore County and Gooding County runs vertically through the center of the sheet, bisecting the drainage of Clover Creek. Transportation in the area is sparse, primarily concentrated along the historical Old Clover Creek Rd and the irrigation infrastructure of Lateral Y-9 in the southern sections. The map provides a precise record of the public land survey system divisions, showing the township and range lines that have organized these ranching and grazing lands for generations.
