2017 Map of Hog Cove Butte

About this map

Hog Cove Butte dominates the northern skyline of this territory along the border of Payette and Gem counties. The landscape is defined by a network of drainage systems including Hog Cove Cr and N Fork Alkali Cr, which cut through the high ground of Bannister Basin and Sheep Gulch. Water management for the region's agricultural and ranching needs is evident at Bettis Reservoir and the isolated Rayner Spring. The southern portion of the map transitions into the lower elevations of Sand Hollow, where the terrain begins to level out. Established travel routes like Dry Creek Rd and Big Willow Rd follow the natural contours of the valley floors, providing vital connectivity between the scattered basins and gulches of this rural Idaho interior.
