2011 Map of Big Foot Butte

About this map

Big Foot Butte rises above a sparse landscape defined by an intricate network of local access roads and drainage patterns in Ada County. This area of Idaho is characterized by its high desert terrain and seasonal water features, notably Wind Butte Lakes and the isolated Tadpole Lake situated in the central portion of the quadrangle. The map documents a rural infrastructure where thoroughfares like Range Rd and Big Foot Rd intersect a complex system of smaller routes such as Fischer Rd and Walsh Rd. The presence of Cemetery Rd near the eastern margin suggests localized history, while the wandering path of Rabbit Creek serves as a primary drainage corridor. This survey provides a baseline for tracking modern land use and remote road development in a region shaped by volcanic geography and high-altitude basins.
