About this map

Horse Basin defines this high-desert landscape in Owyhee County, characterized by a series of dramatic gaps and drainage networks captured during a 1972 field check. The area is marked by the convergence of Big Horse Basin Gap and Little Horse Basin Gap, which provide natural passage through the high terrain. Water management and seasonal flow are evident through the paths of Big Jacks Creek and Little Jacks Creek, as well as Rattlesnake Creek to the southwest.
