2010 Map of Kimama Butte

About this map

Kimama Butte and Sid Butte define the basalt-strewn landscape of this Jerome County region. The terrain is marked by a deliberate grid of rural roads and infrastructure, including the prominent Pole Line Rd which traverses the southern portion of the quadrangle. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates the intersection of geological landmarks and modern utility corridors. Sparse water features and a network of arterial routes like Senter Rd and Kimama Lookout Rd suggest an area primarily utilized for range management and infrastructure maintenance. The map provides a clear record of the physical geography and the precisely surveyed road system that connects these isolated volcanic buttes to the wider Snake River Plain.
