2023 Map of Purjue Canyon

About this map

Little Jacks Creek Wilderness dominates the southern reaches of this landscape in Owyhee County, marking a transition into protected public lands. The drainage network is the defining characteristic of this area, with Purjue Canyon carving through the center of the sheet. Seasonal watercourses such as Shoofly Creek, Poison Creek, and Twentymile Gulch define the topography, illustrating the erosive power of water in this high desert environment. While largely uninhabited, the presence of Poison Creek Rd and Mud Flat Rd indicates the primary routes for ranching or recreational access. The map reveals how local infrastructure like Paul Black Ln and Castle Creek Rd skirts the edges of the more complex terrain, following the natural contours of the land around the deeper canyons.
