1990 Map of Butler Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Buckskin Mountains dominate this arid landscape in La Paz County, where a legacy of resource extraction is evident through numerous prospect sites and an occasional Mine Shaft. A striking geographic transition occurs as the highlands descend toward the Cactus Plain to the southwest and the Butler Valley to the southeast. Transportation through this desert terrain is defined by the Lincoln Ranch Road and several 4wd tracks, which navigate the gaps between the mountains and the Bouse Hills. Of particular interest to industrial historians is the Old Railroad Grade running through the northwestern sector, a physical reminder of past logistics in this part of Arizona. The prominent Battleship Peak serves as a central landmark overlooking Butler Pass, marking a key transit point between the rugged northern ridges and the broad valley floors below.
