About this map

Triangle serves as a lone anchor in this high-desert Owyhee County landscape, where water sources dictate the geography of human activity. The map reveals a complex network of springs and seeps, such as Stageroad Spring, Antelope Spring, and West Spring, which support the livestock and wildlife of the high plateaus. These water points are critical landmarks across the arid terrain of Antelope Ridge and the broad expanse of Cow Valley.

Infrastructure is sparse, defined primarily by the crossing of Triangle Rd and Antelope Ridge Rd. To the east, the White Horse Reservoir and the drainage of White Horse Cr provide essential catchment in a region carved by seasonal flows like N Fork Castle Cr and Buck Gulch. The elevation patterns reflect a rugged environment where the placement of a seep like Toy Seep or a named feature like Buckroo Spring remains vital to local navigation and land use.
