1972 Map of Frying Pan Basin

About this map

Dickshooter sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape in Owyhee County, where ranching infrastructure and remote terrain features define the local geography. The area is characterized by a series of basins and elevated landforms, most notably Big Springs Butte and the broad depressions of D Bar Basin and Frying Pan Basin. Water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by a network of waterholes and reservoirs including Rim Rock Reservoir and Squaw Meadows Reservoir No 1. The map traces the essential Jeep Trails that connect these remote outposts across the high plateau.
