2010 Map of Antelope Spring

About this map

Castle Creek and its many tributaries, including Horse Thief Creek and Alder Creek, carve through this Owyhee County landscape in the early 21st century. The map highlights a remote ranching and mining environment where the Spiry Place stands as a primary landmark alongside significant mining claims such as Amie Number One and Amie Number Two. Transportation is limited to rugged tracks like Alder Creek Rd and Triangle Rd, which follow the natural contours of the drainages and ridges. The presence of features like Hogpen Gulch and Buckaroo Creek reflects the region's enduring livestock heritage and the localized naming conventions of the Idaho backcountry. This map preserves the spatial relationship between isolated homestead sites and the high-desert water sources that define settlement patterns in this part of the state.
