Clover Creek (Bruneau River tributary)

Clover Creek is a stream located in Owyhee County, Idaho, United States. It is a tributary of the Bruneau River, contributing to its watershed. The creek's headwaters originate in the Owyhee Mountains, and it flows generally northward before its confluence with the Bruneau River. The surrounding landscape is characterized by arid, high desert terrain, typical of the Owyhee region. Vegetation along the creek is limited to riparian species tolerant of the dry climate and occasional flooding. The creek supports a variety of wildlife, though specific species inventories may vary. Land use in the area surrounding Clover Creek is primarily ranching and grazing, with limited agricultural development. The stream's flow is subject to seasonal variations, with higher flows during snowmelt and spring runoff, and lower flows during the summer and fall months. Further details regarding specific flow rates, water quality, and ecological studies may be available from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) or the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ).
