2023 Map of Williams Creek

About this map

Pleasant Valley and the high-elevation terrain of South Mountain anchor this modern-era study of Owyhee County. The landscape is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including the northern flow of Jordan Creek and the western descent of Toppin Creek. The presence of Iron Mine Creek and Minear Creek suggests a history of prospecting and resource extraction in the high ridges surrounding Jims Peak. Settlement is sparse, with primary access limited to primitive routes like S Mountain Rd and Morgan Ln. The map offers a precise view of the complex hydrology between Big Boulder Creek and the southern slopes where South Mountain Creek originates, providing an essential resource for those tracing land use and topography in this remote stretch of Idaho.
