About this map

Ticeska occupies a distinct position in the Idaho landscape where the high plateau meets the deep incision of the Snake River canyon. This 2017 survey details the complex water management infrastructure essential to the region, including the King Hill Main Canal, Pioneer Reservoir, and various laterals like Lateral Y-12 and Lateral Y-9. These man-made systems contrast with natural features such as Clover Cr and the drainage of Tuana Gulch.

The map reveals a transition from the agricultural plains into the dramatic relief of Cassia Gulch and the basalt-edged valley. Significant landmarks include Burnt Ridge and Pioneer Butte in the north, while the southern portion is defined by the steep descent toward Bliss Reservoir. Local history is reflected in the path of Old Hwy 30 and specialized routes such as Idaho Power Rd and Power Plant Rd, indicating the intersection of transportation and energy infrastructure along the river corridor.
