2023 Map of Kettle Butte NE

About this map

The boundary line between Jefferson and Bonneville counties cuts across the southern reach of this landscape, an area characterized by the intricate drainage patterns of the Kettle Butte Drain. This modern 2023 survey illustrates the sparse, high-desert road network typical of the Snake River Plain, where utilitarian routes like Cinder Rd and Diamond Rd provide access to the vast open sections. The map is primarily organized around the Public Land Survey System grids of T5N R35E and surrounding townships, reflecting the geometric parceling of Idaho’s volcanic plains. This is a quiet, rural terrain where the topography is defined more by subtle elevation changes and man-made water management than by concentrated settlement.
