1992 Map of Coyote Butte

About this map

Snake River Birds Of Prey Natural Area dominates this high-desert landscape in Ada County, where the topography is defined by the canyon of the Snake River. This 1992 revision, based on field work and aerial photography from the late 1980s, documents a region primarily dedicated to conservation and military use. The northeastern portion of the quadrangle is occupied by the Idaho National Guard Maneuver and Training Area, bounded by the National Guard Boundary. The most prominent geological landmark is Coyote Butte, which overlooks the northern plains of the Birds of Prey Area. This map is particularly valuable for researchers tracking the institutional land use and environmental designations that shaped the Snake River plateau during the late twentieth century.
