2010 Map of Ticeska

About this map

Snake River canyon walls and the surrounding high desert plateau dominate this corner of southern Idaho. The landscape is a study in water management, showing the engineered reach of the King Hill Main Canal and several significant impoundments, including Bliss Reservoir and Pioneer Reservoir. The namesake settlement of Ticeska sits north of the river, positioned between the arterial transit corridor and the volcanic terrain of Gopher Knoll and Burnt Ridge. Local infrastructure is defined by the Idaho Power Rd and the Bliss Dam, illustrating the area's role in power generation and irrigation. For those tracing the geography of the Magic Valley, the map reveals the intricate drainage of Clover Creek and the numerous gulches, such as Cassia Gulch and Tuana Gulch, that carve through the basalt-capped plains toward the river below.
