About this map

The northern boundary of the Duck Valley Indian Reservation dominates the southern portion of this high-desert landscape in Owyhee County. This 1971 field-checked survey reveals an intricate system of water management and seasonal drainages, where Yatahoney Creek and Shoofly Creek carve through the terrain. The presence of numerous small-scale water features like Yatahoney Reservoir No 1, Yatahoney Reservoir No 2, and Willies Reservoir suggests a landscape shaped by the needs of livestock and regional hydrology in an arid environment.
