2010 Map of Combination Ridge

About this map

Big Boulder Creek and its many tributaries carve through this high-elevation drainage system in Owyhee County. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrography, where South Boulder Creek, North Boulder Creek, and South Mountain Creek converge from various directions to form a primary watershed. Human activity is sparse on the terrain, marked primarily by the presence of Flint Rd in the northeast and a few secondary routes that navigate the steep elevations. Notable topographic variations are found at Vulcan Gulch in the southwest. The intricate network of waterways, including Combination Creek and Bogus Creek, suggests a region where water management and natural drainage are central to the land's utility and character during this period of the early 21st century.
