1936 Map of Rowland

About this map

The Bruneau River carves a deep path through this 1930s high-desert landscape, crossing the state line between Elko County, Nevada, and Owyhee County, Idaho. The settlement of Rowland serves as a central hub in a region defined by isolated cattle ranching and early mining interests, such as the Bruneau Mine. The presence of the Bruneau Sch and the Gold Creek Ranger Sta 33 indicates a community established enough to support public infrastructure despite the challenging terrain of the Diamond A Desert.
