1973 Map of Red Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Owyhee River snakes through the deep canyons of this southwestern Idaho landscape, carving a prominent horseshoe bend around a landform known as The Tongue. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the terrain is defined by its isolation and limited infrastructure, with the waterway serving as the primary geographical anchor. Cultural features are sparse, represented by remote outposts like The Garden and the river access point at Crutcher Crossing.
