1967 Map of Mitchell Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Mitchell Butte Hot Spring sits near the base of its namesake peak, marking a thermal landmark in this desert landscape of Malheur County. The map details an intricate irrigation network essential to the high desert economy, including the North Canal, the Owyhee Butte Lateral, and a system of engineering features like the Cow Hollow Siphon and an aqueduct. These water management tools contrast with the natural ruggedness of Chalk Butte and Deer Butte. Along the eastern edge, a grid of named thoroughfares such as Lytle Blvd, Grand Ave, and Janeta Ave suggests planned expansion or rural development near the Owyhee River. This document records the area as it was surveyed in the mid-1960s, documenting a time when aviation infrastructure like the Landing Strip supported local operations alongside established natural sources like Chalk Spring and Rock Spring.
