About this map

The Indian Reservation occupies the central portion of this 1971 survey, showing a landscape defined by water management and high-desert terrain near the Nevada-Idaho border. The Owyhee River flows through the northeast, supported by a network of irrigation works including the Main Canal, the Duck Valley Canal, and the Siphon. Cultural history is noted by the presence of the Chinatown Cem, Smith Cem, and Premo Cem, offering specific points of interest for genealogists tracking early inhabitants of the Duck Valley region.
