2013 Map of Stricker Butte

About this map

Rock Creek flows through a landscape defined by an intricate network of irrigation and dairy farming in this region south of the Snake River. The importance of early water management is evident in the paths of the Low-Line Canal, High Line North Canal, and the Twin Falls Main Canal, which support agricultural operations like the Sudik Dairy and Magic Milk Dairy. Local history is anchored by the Stricker Cabin and the nearby Rock Creek Cemeteries, serving as reminders of the area's early settlement era. The terrain transitions from the level expanses of Pleasant Valley to the more varied topography of Stricker Butte and Cedar Hill. Deep drainages such as Niles Gulch, Dry Gulch, and Antelope Valley provide a stark contrast to the gridded system of roads, including Indian Spring Rd and Cherry Spring Rd, that facilitate movement through this corner of the Idaho high desert.
