1964 Map of Burley Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Burley Butte dominates this southern Idaho landscape, providing a clear vantage point over the agricultural development and water infrastructure of Cassia County in the early 1960s. The map illustrates a transition in local transportation, featuring both the active Union Pacific line and an Old Railroad Grade that traces the path of earlier rail commerce. Resource management is central to the area's layout, with a large Pipeline and an Aqueduct cutting across the terrain to support the numerous wells scattered throughout the valley. Natural drainage is defined by the winding courses of Cottonwood Creek and Goose Creek, which intersect the systematic grid of rural transit including 400 South Road and 600 South Road. This survey documents a critical period of regional utility expansion, marked by the presence of a central Substation and a dense network of water access points.
