2021 Map of Butler Pass

About this map

Battleship Peak commands the center of this landscape, marking a significant elevation in a region defined by dramatic basin-and-range topography. This 2021 survey illustrates the stark transition between the elevated Bouse Hills and the wide expanse of the Butler Valley to the south. The land is crossed by functional corridors such as Powerline Rd and Lincoln Ranch Rd, which follow the natural contours of the desert floor. The map highlights Butler Pass as a key topographic notch between the peaks, serving as a natural transit point through the range. While modern in its data collection, the map preserves the foundational survey grid, including townships like t9n r15w, showing how these arid lands were historically partitioned for management.
