2020 Map of Big Springs Ranch

About this map

Big Springs Ranch sits within a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage basins and water management in Owyhee County. The terrain is marked by the prominent Big Springs Butte to the southwest and the expansive Antelope Flat in the northeast corner. This high desert environment is heavily engineered for water retention, featuring a sequence of numbered catchments including the Pole Cr Reservoir Number One series and several Dry Cr Reservoir sites. Waterways like Camas Cr and Big Springs Cr wind through the township boundaries of T9S, T10S, and T11S. The primary transit route through this remote ranching territory is Battle Creek Rd, which follows the path of Battle Creek and Dry Cr, connecting the various reservoirs and springs that sustain the local livestock operations.
