2017 Map of Cinder Cone Butte

About this map

Cinder Cone Butte rises as a prominent volcanic landmark on the high desert landscape between Ada and Elmore Counties. This 2017 survey shows a region defined by geometric land partitions and a sparse network of roads, including Simco Rd and N Cinder Butte Rd, which navigate the arid terrain. The map captures a primarily agricultural and open-range environment, evidenced by the P and R Field and various section lines that delineate property and usage in this part of southern Idaho. Drainage patterns are clearly marked by the ephemeral paths of Squaw Cr and Canyon Cr, which cut through the sagebrush-covered plains toward the Snake River plain. The inclusion of specialized access routes like S Cinder Butte Summit Rd underscores the topographical significance of the butte itself for local navigation and land management.
