Battle Creek (Owyhee River tributary)
Appearance
Battle Creek is a 67-mile (110 km) long[1] tributary of the Owyhee River. Beginning at an elevation of 6,704 feet (2,043 m)[2] in central Owyhee County, Idaho, it flows generally south through the Owyhee Desert to its mouth west of Riddle,[3] at an elevation of 4,636 feet (1,413 m).[4] In 2009, 23.4 miles (37.7 km) of the creek were designated as wild by the Omnibus Public Land Management Act, which also created the Owyhee River Wilderness.[5][6]
