About this map

Grindstone Butte anchors the southeastern corner of this high desert landscape, which straddles the line between Elmore and Owyhee Counties. The terrain is characterized by the broad expanse of Deadman Flat and the meandering course of Sailor Creek. This 1940s-era topography reveals a sparse ranching or livestock-focused environment, where water sources were critical for survival and navigation.
