1974 Map of Twelvemile Flat SE

About this map

The South Fork Owyhee River cuts a deep, winding path through the high desert of Elko County, defining the central landscape of this 1974 survey. Rising above the river canyon, the Peterson Desert Table dominates the northeast, while the drainage of Fourmile Creek marks the southeastern reach. The map reveals a land utilized for seasonal livestock grazing rather than permanent settlement, evidenced by several Corral sites and a Water Tank located near the creek bed.
