1956 Map of Blue Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Blue Butte and Winter Camp Butte dominate this mid-century high desert landscape, characterized by prominent volcanic formations and intermittent water sources. The mapping of the Aerial Gunnery Range and the Air Force Reservation Boundary indicates the mid-1950s significance of this area for military operations, specifically within the Saylor Creek basin. The terrain is marked by deep topographic features such as the East Fork Bruneau Canyon and the wide depression of Big Draw.
