2023 Map of Black Butte East

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The expansive Bruneau Desert defines this high-elevation landscape in Owyhee County, where drainage patterns are etched by the courses of Pot Hole Creek and Sailor Creek. This modern survey illustrates the sparse, arid character of the region, where infrastructure is limited to the crossing of Castleford Rd in the southern sections. The map serves as a contemporary record of the Public Land Survey System grid across townships like t8s r9e and t9s r10e, marking the transition of watercourses through the plateau. For those studying the geography of southwestern Idaho, it provides a precise account of the natural hydrology and few established access routes that traverse these open reaches of desert land.
