About this map

South Fork Owyhee River carves a deep canyon through the high desert of the Idaho and Nevada borderlands, anchoring a landscape defined by seasonal water management and remote ranching infrastructure. This mid-1970s survey reveals a network of upland basins and deserts, including the Walcot Basin and the edge of the Y P Desert, where local history is etched into the landscape through cattle-range improvements. Scattered reservoirs like John G Reservoir, Stump Reservoir, and the appropriately named Last Chance Reservoir indicate the vital importance of water storage in this arid environment. The terrain is navigated by a series of jeep and pack trails, connecting isolated points such as the Coyote Hole and Bull Camp Reservoir across the Owyhee and Elko county line.
