1986 Map of Third Butte East

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

White Cloud Mountain dominates the high-altitude landscape of this eastern White Pine County region during the mid-1980s. The area is defined by a succession of prominent peaks, including Third Butte, Second Butte, and First Butte, which descend toward the southwest. This mountainous terrain is deeply incised by drainages such as Eightmile Canyon and Cottonwood Canyon, where vital water sources like Promaine Springs and Marble Spring supported seasonal movement and land use. Traces of historical exploration are evident in the scatter of resource extraction markers, specifically a Mine Shaft and various Prospect locations near Coyote Canyon. The presence of Graves near the southwestern corner and a Natural Arch in the south provides specific points of interest for those tracking local history or geologic landmarks. The map illustrates a high-desert environment where intermittent water and resource scouting dictated the human footprint.
