1987 Map of Groundhog Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Duck Valley Indian Reservation spans the state line between Nevada and Idaho, capturing a high-desert landscape defined by complex water management. This late-twentieth-century survey reveals a network of small reservoirs and catchment basins essential for ranching and sustainability in Duck Valley. Named features like Mc Neilly Reservoir, Thacker Reservoir, and Roger Smith Reservoir suggest a landscape partitioned by individual or tribal grazing interests, where water sources are the primary landmarks. The presence of Circle Creek and Sheep Creek feeding into diverse impoundments such as Groundhog Reservoir and Circle Creek Reservoir illustrates the infrastructure required to support life in this arid basin. The map serves as a detailed record of land use and hydrology within the Owyhee and Elko county borders during the 1980s.
