About this map

Cinder Cone Butte rises as a prominent volcanic landmark amidst a landscape shaped by military and conservation boundaries. This high desert terrain is largely defined by the sprawling Snake River Birds of Prey Area, established to protect the densest population of nesting raptors in North America. The map reveals how the land is shared between natural preservation and defense needs, with the Idaho National Guard Maneuver and Training Area occupying the western portions and the Mountain Home Air Force Base Small Arms Range situated to the southeast. Industrial and transportation signatures appear through the presence of a Cinder Pit and the utility of Simco Road. Ephemeral drainage patterns are traced by Squaw Creek and Canyon Creek, which carve through the plains near the border of Ada and Elmore Counties.
