1972 Map of Big Springs Ranch

About this map

The high plateau of Owyhee County is defined by its seasonal water management and ranching infrastructure, as seen in this early 1970s survey. Big Springs Ranch sits at the heart of a landscape dominated by drainage systems like Camas Creek, Pole Creek, and Dry Creek. The area’s livestock-focused economy is evidenced by a complex network of man-made catchments, including Antelope Flat Reservoir, Sagebrush Flat Reservoir, and a numbered series of reservoirs such as Pole Creek Reservoir No 1 and West Rim Reservoir No 1.
