This spot is a field access road near a sharp bend on the way to the Blackfoot Resevoir recreation area. The actual China Hat is a pointed hill nearby in sight of this parking spot. I stopped here before reaching Blackfoot Reservoir because it had wide open sky and far-away hills. Basically this is one of many flat valleys in southern Idaho surrounded by high ridges. This is one of the wider valleys with more open sky than most others.

There is a KOA Kampground in Soda Springs.

Driving directions: From Soda Spring, go north on Hwy 34 for 22 miles.
Turn left (west) on China Camp Road, drive 1.7 miles.
Look for good turnouts; if you turn right (north) on Government Dam Road, you've gone too far.

Restrictions: If it has rained recently, be wary of slick mud.

Blackfoot Resevoir is forty minutes north of Soda Springs. There is a park and boat ramp at the south end but the spot chosen here might be a bit more secluded with a better chance of horizons to the east and southeast.

Might be some likely VHF spots along the ridge line south of Lava Hot Springs.

Dirt road along N-S ridge. Look for a good spot starting here.
