2023 Map of Black Butte West

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Saylor Creek Air Force Range occupies a significant portion of this high-desert landscape in Owyhee County, illustrating the intersection of military land use and the arid geography of the Bruneau Desert. The topography is defined by volcanic features, most notably Black Butte and Sailor Cap Butte, which rise above the surrounding plains. Water management in this dry environment is evidenced by the Pot Hole Reservoir and the drainage of Pot Hole Creek, which flows through Pot Hole Canyon. Local transportation is facilitated by thoroughfares such as Pothole Rd and Castleford Rd, connecting these remote landforms. This 2023 survey provides a clear view of how these natural features and modern military boundaries coexist within the sparse high-desert terrain.
