1992 Map of Ticeska

About this map

Ticeska sits at the center of this 1990s-era topographic study, marking a high-desert landscape defined by the deep carving of the Snake River. This region, where the borders of Elmore, Gooding, and Twin Falls counties converge, demonstrates the intricate management of water in the arid West. The river is harnessed at the Bliss Dam and its associated Powerplant, forming the Bliss Reservoir which snakes through the canyon floor. To the north, the terrain transitions into the high flats of Burnt Ridge and Gopher Knoll, where a system of infrastructure including Pioneer Reservoir, a Canal, and a Ditch network supports the land. Local transport is represented by descriptive routes such as Main Shoestring Road and Gopher Road, while drainage features like Tuana Gulch and Clover Creek shape the descent toward the river valley.
