1978 Map of The Arch

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Jarbidge River carves a deep, winding path through the high plateau of Owyhee County, defining the eastern portion of this 1970s landscape. This terrain is characterized by expansive arid flats such as the Diamond Desert and Inside Desert, which are interrupted by the dramatic verticality of Cougar Canyon and Arch Canyon. Local landmarks like The Arch and the curious geologic depression of Crater Hole highlight the unique erosional features of the region.
