1973 Map of Little Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Idaho National Engineering Laboratory dominates the northern expanse of this high-desert terrain, a landscape defined by volcanic geology and restricted access. The prominent rise of Little Butte and surrounding fields of Lava suggest a complex volcanic history, while a network of Jeep Trails provides the only passage through this arid environment. Strategic communication is evident through the presence of a Micro Radio Facility and other Radio Facilities positioned across the quadrangle. Bordered by the line between Bingham and Bonneville Counties, the map documents a specialized industrial and scientific landscape during the early 1970s, where federal engineering installations replaced traditional settlement patterns.
