About this map

Bruneau Jarbidge-Rivers Wilderness dominates the eastern canyonlands of this Owyhee County map, where deep topographic relief defines the junction of the desert plateau and the river system. The landscape transition is marked by the Sheep Creek Wild and Scenic River, which carves a narrow, serpentine path through the terrain. To the west, the land rises toward the landmark of Buster Butte, a high point that overlooks the vast, arid expanse of the J-P Desert. The area is sparsely developed, with Rowland Rt Rd providing the primary access through the drainage basins of Marys Creek and Nit Creek. Intermittent water sources like James Lake and the winding course of Rattlesnake Creek reflect the challenging hydrology of this high-desert environment, where elevation and water access dictate the movement through the backcountry.
