1980 Map of Austin Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Bruneau Canyon dominates this 1980 Idaho landscape, its dramatic course winding through a high-plateau environment defined by the Blackstone Desert and Inside Desert. The mapping reveals a sparsely populated region of Owyhee County where landmarks are primarily geologic, such as Austin Butte and the distinctive Twin Butte. This survey provides a record of the area's limited transportation network during the late twentieth century, showing the Blackstone Grasmere Road as the primary thoroughfare, supplemented by a network of a Jeep Trail routes through the sagebrush and basalt. Seasonal water features like Salvador Lake, Big Lake, and White Lake are scattered across the flats, while the East Fork Clover Creek and various Falls within the canyon indicate the drainage patterns that have shaped this arid terrain.
