2023 Map of Elk Butte

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The high desert landscape of Lake County is defined by its critical water sources and volcanic terrain in this modern survey. Named basins like Immigrant Waterhole and Spook Waterhole highlight the historical necessity of surface water for travelers and livestock in this arid region. The topography is dominated by prominent elevations such as Elk Butte and Elk Mountain in the south, while the western edge is bounded by the rise of Pine Ridge. The naming of features like Schlitz Waterhole and Bourbon Waterhole suggests a human history tied to specific campsites or local lore. Remote Bureau of Land Management routes, including BLM RD 6111-0-b0, provide the primary access through this territory of escarpments and basins, notably near the distinct verticality of Black Rim and Dragon Rock.
