2017 Map of Table Butte

About this map

Table Butte and Big Hill dominate the high-altitude landscape of this Owyhee County survey. The terrain is defined by a series of drainages, including the headwaters of Sugar Cr and Hot Cr, which carve through the volcanic plateau. A remote network of primitive roads, notably Ccc Rd, provides access across the various township boundaries including t9s r5e and t10s r6e. The presence of several springs and ephemeral flows, such as Miller Water, suggests the seasonal nature of water resources in this arid environment. This 2017 U.S. Geological Survey provides a detailed topographic view of the open rangeland, documenting the essential water points and landmarks used by ranchers and outdoorsmen in one of the state's most isolated regions.
