2017 Map of Antelope Butte

About this map

Antelope Butte rises as a prominent landmark above the irrigated plains of northern Jefferson County, where the desert landscape has been transformed by a complex network of waterways. This 2017 survey details the essential role of water management in the region, featuring the Crystal Lake Canal and the Second Owsley Canal which traverse the southern and eastern reaches. These engineering projects supported the local agricultural economy, visible through the grid of section roads like Schwendig Rd and E 1500 N. In the northeast, the Mud Lake/West Jefferson County Airport serves as a critical transportation hub for this rural community. The map also captures the transition between the managed farmlands and the more open terrain defined by local landmarks like Little Burn Rd and W Mud Lake Rd.
