2010 Map of Berger Butte

About this map

Berger Butte rises above an agricultural landscape defined by the precision of a modern irrigation network in this 2010 survey of southern Idaho. The map documents the critical infrastructure of the Snake River Plain, featuring the High Line Canal and secondary waterways like Lateral 213 that sustain the region's ranching and farming operations. The grid system of roads, such as N 1800 E and E 2900 N, organizes the territory around water features like Berger Reservoir and Mud Lake. Natural drainage still persists through the cut of Deep Creek, while the presence of the Lincoln Corral highlights the area's continued reliance on livestock management within this highly managed environment. The map captures a transition where traditional range land meets the rigorous geometry of industrialized agriculture.
