1973 Map of Rubber Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The South Fork Owyhee River cuts a deep path through the high plateau of the Y P Desert, straddling the border of Nevada and Idaho. This 1970s survey captures a landscape defined by its aridity and isolation, where water sources like Coyote Springs, Rubber Lake, and the Stateline Windmill represent vital infrastructure for the cattle ranching that defines the region. The presence of unnamed Ruins and a long Pipeline suggests a history of human adaptation to this environment, while local names like Rubber Hill and Devils Corral mark the distinctive topography of Elko and Owyhee counties. A network of Jeep Trails provides the only access through the winding canyons and open flats during this era.
