1947 Map of Jackass Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Snake River carves a deep, winding path through the high desert of southwest Idaho, defining the boundary between Ada and Owyhee counties. This post-war survey details a landscape where historic overland travel meets early 20th-century irrigation engineering. The Emigrant Trail is clearly traced as it skirts the southern bluffs above the river, passing near landmarks like Jackass Butte and Black Butte.
