1967 Map of Owyhee

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The confluence of the Snake River, Boise River, and Owyhee River creates a complex hydrological landscape in this late 1960s survey of the Oregon-Idaho border. The area is defined by a sophisticated irrigation network necessary for high-desert agriculture, featuring the Owyhee Canal, numerous aqueducts, siphons, and the Owyhee Pumping Station. These man-made features contrast with the natural islands of the Snake River, such as Goose Egg Island and Billy Goat Island, and the protected wetlands of the Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge.
