1986 Map of Third Butte East

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

White Cloud Mountain and O'Neal Peak anchor this high-elevation landscape in White Pine County, recorded during a 1980s USGS field survey. The terrain is characterized by a series of prominent rises including Third Butte, Second Butte, and First Butte, which define the western drainage patterns. Water sources are critical landmarks in this arid environment, evidenced by the presence of Marble Spring, Promaine Springs, and Eightmile Spring. Narrow canyons such as Cottonwood Canyon and Coyote Canyon cut through the high country, revealing the complex geological structures of the range. For researchers of local land use, the map identifies specific Prospects and a Natural Arch, suggesting both the mineral interests and distinctive physical geography of the area during the late twentieth century. A network of 4wd tracks and a Trail provide the only established routes through the steep drainages of Eightmile Canyon and Dry Canyon.
