1955 Map of Coyote Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Coyote Butte rises as a prominent landmark in the landscape of Ada County, overlooking a network of unimproved trails and desert terrain south of the Boise Base Line. This 1955 survey, updated with 1971 aerial data, reveals a high-desert environment defined by its surveying infrastructure rather than dense settlement. The map serves as a detailed record of the township and range system, showing the precise alignment of section lines across the sagebrush-covered hills. Researchers interested in the historical geography of the Idaho desert can trace the early road network that connected this area to the larger Boise region, visible here before modern development expanded into the surrounding plains. The lack of permanent structures underscores the land's primary use for grazing and transit during the mid-twentieth century.
