2010 Map of Little Valley

About this map

Stone Cemetery sits near the eastern edge of this Owyhee County landscape, where the high desert terrain is marked by deep drainages and irrigation efforts. The convergence of Big Jacks Creek and Little Jacks Creek defines the local hydrology, feeding into the primary channel of Jacks Creek as it flows north. Human activity in this arid environment is evidenced by a network of rural routes and significant water infrastructure like the Benham Canal. The naming of roads such as Mormon Blvd, Sho Fly Rd, and Sugar Valley Rd suggests the cultural and agricultural history of the region. Topographic features like Halfway Gulch and the isolated Deadman Gulch further illustrate the character of this southwestern Idaho cattle country.
