About this map

Antelope Ridge dominates the northern skyline of this high-desert Owyhee County landscape, where the geography is defined by a critical network of springs and seasonal drainages. The presence of Gooseberry Spring, Evans Lick Spring, and Station Spring underscores the necessity of water management in this arid ranching country. Throughout the terrain, smaller water sources like Giusti Spring and remote infrastructure such as the Long Tom Troughs indicate the area's continued use for livestock grazing.

Running through the central canyons, the eponymous Hurry Up Creek joins other vital waterways including Rock Creek, Louisa Creek, and Long Tom Creek. Navigation across these ridgelines is largely confined to unimproved routes like Antelope Ridge Rd, which follows the high ground above Juniper Creek. This map offers a clear view of the complex hydrology and land divisions between T8S R2W and T9S R1W.
