2024 Map of Piute Butte

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

Piute Butte and Dryden Peak rise above the high-desert landscape of Owyhee County, defining a region where water management and indigenous naming are central to the geography. This modern survey illustrates a network of essential water sources, such as Canter Spring Reservoir, Skull Spring, and Blackstock Spring, which support the arid uplands. The nomenclature of the area reflects deep cultural layers, evidenced by the presence of Newe Waippe Naokwaide and Paide Naokwaide alongside traditional drainage names like Dead Horse Creek. The road network is sparse but vital, with Sands Basin Rd and McBride Creek Rd following the natural contours of the land. Cattle-country infrastructure is visible through numerous named springs and the seasonal flow of Little McBride Creek and Willow Fork, providing a contemporary view of this rangeland's hydrology.
