2020 Map of Antelope Butte

About this map

Antelope Butte dominates the northwestern corner of this Jefferson County landscape, rising as a distinct volcanic or tectonic landmark above the surrounding high desert plain. The region’s agricultural character is defined by a geometric grid of section roads and vital irrigation infrastructure, including the Crystal Lake Canal and Second Owsley Canal. These water systems represent the critical engineering required to support settlement in this arid environment. Transportation and local access are centered around the Mud Lake/West Jefferson County Airport in the northeast, while a network of rural routes like Schwendig Rd and Little Burn Rd connect the various townships. This survey illustrates the ongoing reliance on managed water resources and specialized aviation infrastructure that sustains the remote communities of eastern Idaho.
