2017 Map of Antelope Spring

About this map

Antelope Spring sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape in Owyhee County, where a network of primitive roads and watercourses defines the remote terrain. This 2017 survey details a region shaped by ranching and historic passage, centered around the Bachman Grade and the Horse Thief Cutoff. The drainage patterns are clearly delineated, showing how Browns Cr and Buckaroo Cr feed into the larger creek systems that carve through the gulches. Notable landmarks like Hogpen Gulch suggest the area's long-standing use for livestock movement, while the arterial Triangle Rd and Alder Creek Rd provide the primary access through these townships. The map is a meticulous study of topographical transitions, documenting the numerous named springs and seasonal washes including Cottonwood Cr and Castle Cr that are vital to this arid environment.
