2021 Map of Button Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Owyhee Desert characterizes this high plateau region along the border of Humboldt and Elko counties. This arid landscape is defined by its subtle drainage patterns and seasonal water features, most notably the wide, marshy expanse of Button Lake in the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The hydrology of the area is primarily shaped by intermittent flows, including Lake Cr which traverses the southern section. The map reveals the stark, geometric precision of the Public Land Survey System, with township lines such as t45n r43e and t44n r44e cutting across the undulating terrain. This 2021 survey documents the remote character of the Nevada backcountry, where traditional desert basin features remain largely undisturbed by modern development or infrastructure.
