2017 Map of Piute Basin West
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Owyhee River cuts through the far northern reach of this landscape, carving the dramatic Owyhee Canyon near the confluence with Cherry Gulch. This 2017 survey reveals an arid, high-elevation environment dominated by the drainages of Piute Cr, which winds through the eastern portion of the quadrangle before entering the Piute Basin. The topographic relief is defined by sharp contour gradients along these watercourses, illustrating the geological character of Owyhee County. This modern digital survey serves as a primary reference for the public land survey system divisions in this corner of Idaho, including Townships 13, 14, and 15 South across Ranges 3 and 4 West.
