1980 Map of Castleford Butte
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
The high desert terrain of the Bruneau Desert and Blue Ridge dominates this 1980 survey, illustrating a landscape primarily shaped by water access and cattle ranching. Essential livestock locations like Hewitt Watering and Freeland Watering are marked alongside isolated infrastructure such as a Corral and a Water Tank. The topography is defined by the sharp incisions of Deadman Creek and Sailor Creek, which carve through the volcanic foundations of the region, including areas of Basalt. The eastern edge of the quadrangle shows the boundary between Owyhee and Twin Falls Counties, where Castleford Butte rises as a prominent landmark. A network of primitive transport is visible via the Jeep Trail system and the Balanced Rock Road, while more modern development is noted by a Radio Facility on the heights.
