1992 Map of Grindstone Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Deadman Flat dominates this high-desert landscape in southern Idaho, where the topography is defined by the significant rise of Grindstone Butte. This 1992 revision, based on photography from the 1940s and late 1980s, details the sparse but essential infrastructure of the high plateau. The map marks the boundary between Elmore and Owyhee counties, a remote area where water sources like Dove Spring, Deadman Creek, and Sailor Creek are critical features. The transition from range to rugged slopes is evidenced by the namesake Solosabal-Sailor settlement area and the network of unpaved routes including West Grindstone Road and Flint Mesa Road. These tracks provide the primary access through the drainage systems and to small-scale industrial sites like the local Gravel Pit.
