2013 Map of Nichol Flat
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
Nichol Flat and its high-desert water management systems define this portion of Owyhee County. The landscape is marked by essential water sources for ranching, including the Lower Nichol Flat Reservoir, Big Blue Cr Reservoir, and Bybee Reservoir, which capture runoff in an otherwise arid terrain. Seasonal drainages such as Blue Cr, Little Blue Cr, and Harris Cr weave through the township divisions. Human presence is centered on the Portlock Ranch and several named water points like Rodeo Spring and Hawks Nest Spring, which provide critical resources for local agriculture. Transport in this remote area relies on the arterial Battle Creek Rd and Point Lock Rd, tracing the paths of early land-use patterns in southwestern Idaho.
