1977 Map of Bull Basin Camp

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The remote high-desert interior of Owyhee County is mapped here in detail, centered on the Bull Basin Camp and the winding canyons of the southern Idaho rangelands. The landscape is defined by its vital water sources, from major arteries like the Owyhee River and the South Fork Owyhee River to numerous isolated water holes such as Ross Spring, Skamfer Spring, and Antelope Spring. This 1970s survey illustrates a region shaped by livestock management, where a network of Jeep Trails connects various corrals and man-made catchments like Bald Mountain Reservoir and Long Pull Reservoir. The terrain transitions from the elevated Rock Flat in the northwest across Bald Mountain into the deep incision of Dukes Canyon, reflecting a rugged pastoral economy dependent on scattered springs like the Head of the Ditch Springs to sustain movement across Wilson Pasture.
