2013 Map of Halfway Lake

About this map

Wildhorse Butte rises as the dominant landmark in this high desert landscape of Idaho, situated within a topography marked by a series of seasonal basins and depressions. The 2013 survey of this Lincoln County region reveals a scattered network of water bodies, including Halfway Lake, Mud Flat Lake, and the eastern and western portions of the Wildhorse complex, specifically W Wildhorse Lake and S Wildhorse Lake. These ephemeral features suggest a landscape defined by periodic drainage and accumulation rather than permanent flow. Human activity is represented by the section lines of the Public Land Survey System and isolated transit routes such as Kimama Rd and Shale Butte Rd. The map illustrates the characteristic grid of southern Idaho ranching and range land, where large-scale administrative boundaries like t4s r22e and t4s r23e organize the territory around these natural desert landmarks.
