1990 Map of Big Spring Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge dominates this high-desert landscape, preserving a vast expanse of the Great Basin as it appeared in the late 20th century. The topography is defined by significant volcanic plateau formations, most notably Gooch Table and the Sage Hen Hills, which rise above the surrounding flats. Water management is central to the area's geography, evidenced by Sage Hen Reservoir and Big Spring Reservoir, which collect precious surface water in an otherwise arid environment.
