2017 Map of Kinzie Butte

About this map

Kinzie Butte rises as a prominent landmark above the surrounding high desert plain in Lincoln County. This landscape is defined by its sophisticated agricultural plumbing, where the Big Wood River and Cottonwood Slough are managed through an extensive network of man-made waterways. Significant infrastructure including the Lincoln Bypass Canal, the North Shoshone Canal, and the Lincoln Canal demonstrates the effort to divert water across this arid region. Several small impoundments such as Little Cottonwood Reservoir, Kinzie Butte Reservoir, and the Raft Reservoir dot the terrain. The presence of Old Hwy 93 in the northern portion of the quadrangle suggests the evolution of regional transportation routes through this rural corridor.
