2017 Map of Juniper Butte

About this map

Juniper Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this high desert landscape of Owyhee County, overlooking a network of seasonal watercourses and historical transit routes. The terrain is defined by the deep incision of the East Fork Bruneau Canyon to the east, while Clover Cr meanders through the central sections of the quadrangle. This area reflects a long history of ranching and range management, evidenced by the presence of Scotch Trl and Malad Trl, which navigate the draws and flats. Remote even by modern standards, the map reveals the isolation of features like Juniper Lake and the drainage patterns of Buck Flat Draw and Aikers Draw. The persistence of Three Creek Rd along the western edge highlights the primary corridor for movement through this sparsely populated corner of Idaho, where land use remains tied to the natural contours of the canyonlands.
