1979 Map of Indian Hot Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Indian Hot Springs marks a thermal focus within the deep incision of the Bruneau Canyon in this late-1970s landscape. The confluence of the Bruneau River and the Jarbidge River creates a dramatic intersection of high-desert drainages, defined by steep walls and precarious crossings like the Footbridge south of Mile 0. Evidence of human activity is scattered across the arid terrain, ranging from unnamed Ruins in Cedar Tree Canyon to mineral Prospects on the canyon rim. Above the river corridors, the environment shifts to the wide expanses of the Diamond A Desert and J-P Desert, where ephemeral features like Big Lake and Long Lake appear. The network of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails indicates a rugged accessibility used by ranchers and outdoorsmen navigating the Hot Springs Bench and Bighorn Country.
