1992 Map of Oreana

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Oreana serves as the primary settlement hub for this high-desert Owyhee County landscape, situated along the Boise Meridian where the terrain begins its ascent from the river flats toward the mountains. The map documents a land shaped by drainage systems like Pickett Creek, Hart Creek, and Catherine Creek, which flow toward the northern ranchlands. Evidence of early land use and local heritage is found at the Cem and Corral located just south of the main townsite. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the Snake River Birds of Prey Area, highlighting the conservation status of the canyonlands. Roadways such as Triangle Road and Castle Creek Road connect this remote ranching community to the broader region, while landmarks like Fossil Butte and Fossil Creek hint at the area's geological and paleontological significance.
