2023 Map of East of Howe Peak

About this map

The Big Lost River winds through the eastern edge of this high-altitude landscape in Butte County, defining the drainage patterns for this arid region. The terrain is structured by a network of utilitarian roads that suggest the area's role in regional transit and local land management. Routes such as Howe Rd and Shell Rd cross the northern sections, while the southern portion of the quadrangle features a more developed road grid including Lincoln Blvd and Washington Blvd. This infrastructure serves the open spaces between the mountain peaks to the west and the river to the east. The map provides a detailed view of the township and range system, specifically the intersection of T4N and T5N across ranges R29E and R30E, revealing how the land was surveyed and divided for modern use.
