1972 Map of Owyhee Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Owyhee Canyon dominates this 1970s landscape, where the Owyhee River carves a deep, winding path through Malheur County. The river’s course is marked by several stretches of rapids, emphasizing the unmanaged flow of the water in this high desert environment. Away from the canyon rim, the terrain is characterized by volcanic features and man-made water management. A prominent Lava Field and the volcanic peak of Saddle Butte sit to the west, while the eastern plateau is dotted with essential ranching infrastructure.
