1980 Map of Juniper Ranch

About this map

The East Fork Bruneau River cuts a deep canyon through the high plateau of Owyhee County, separating the expansive Bruneau Desert to the northeast from the Inside Desert to the southwest. This arid landscape is sparsely settled, defined by remote outposts like Clover Flat Ranch and Juniper Ranch that anchor the local grazing economy. Surface water is a rare and vital resource, represented by the winding Clover Creek and intermittent drainage systems such as Buck Flat Draw. The infrastructure of the era is minimal, consisting primarily of the Clover Three Creek Road and various Jeep Trails that navigate the rimrock and sagebrush. A strategically placed Water Tank further emphasizes the reliance on managed water sources for livestock in this high-desert environment during the late 1970s.
