1972 Map of Turner Table

About this map

Turner Table dominates this high plateau region of Owyhee County, characterized by a complex network of springs and seasonal water management in the early 1970s. The landscape reflects a ranching economy dependent on features like the Monasterio-Jacks Creek Road Reservoir and the Turner Butte Dam. Small-scale operations are evident at the Morrow Ranch and Monasterio Ranch, while the presence of Whites House (Ruins) near Whites Reservoir points to an earlier layer of settlement that had already faded by the time of this survey. The terrain is deeply etched by Big Jacks Creek and Blue Creek, with numerous named water sources such as Angleworm Spring and Banks Spring supporting the livestock that utilized the Jacks Creek Meadows. A network of jeep trails provides the primary access across this remote corner of Idaho, linking the various reservoirs and ranch sites.
