2021 Map of Maiden Butte

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Maiden Butte rises as a prominent landmark within the expansive high-desert terrain of northern Humboldt County. This 2021 survey details an arid landscape defined by its seasonal water sources and intermittent drainages, including the Little Owyhee River and the headwaters of Raven Cr. The presence of Maiden Springs and Twin Valley Springs suggests the critical importance of reliable water in this corner of the Owyhee Desert, where historical grazing and travel would have been dictated by these sparse features. Modern infrastructure is limited to rugged tracks like Quinn River Rd, which navigates the township and range lines through the high plateau. The map provides a clear look at the topography where the high plains meet the intricate drainages of Calico Cr, illustrating the isolation and specialized environment of the Great Basin's northern reaches.
