2023 Map of Grasmere

About this map

Wickahoney and Grasmere represent the quiet settlement history of the Owyhee high desert, where water and topography dictated the routes of early travel. This survey illustrates a landscape of volcanic features and seasonal watercourses, defined by prominent landmarks like Gedney Butte and Poison Butte. The drainage patterns are clearly delineated, with Wickahoney Creek flowing through the northern section while China Creek and Nanny Creek traverse the southern reaches. The network of primitive roads, including Duncan Butte Rd, follows the natural contours of the terrain, connecting these remote outposts. The map provides an essential record of the contemporary rangeland, showing how the land is partitioned across Township 11 and 12 South, documenting the current state of this isolated Idaho corridor.
