2013 Map of Crows Nest NE

About this map

Indian Ridge rises as a central topographic anchor in this high desert landscape on the border of Twin Falls and Owyhee Counties. The terrain is defined by the expanse of the Bruneau Desert and a series of rugged drainage features, most notably the seasonal course of Deadman Cr and the etched paths of Tuana Gulch and Rosevear Gulch. These natural corridors dictate the layout of the few established routes, such as Crows Nest Rd and the Glenns Ferry Castleford Rd, which navigate the elevation changes between the desert floor and Blue Ridge. The lack of significant residential development highlights a landscape largely shaped by its hydrology and traditional ranching or transit corridors in this remote section of southern Idaho.
