2017 Map of Little Butte NE

About this map

Tractor Flat anchors the southern portion of this high desert landscape, where the borders of Jefferson, Bingham, and Bonneville counties converge. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a region defined by its wide, open reaches and a sparse network of service roads. The geography is primarily a remote expanse of sagebrush and rolling topography, typical of the Snake River Plain's fringes. Transportation through this interior relies on a few critical corridors such as W Mud Lake Rd and Sheep Rd, which provide access across the township and range lines of T4N and T5N. The presence of Twin Butte Sage Junction Rd in the southeast corner indicates the primary route connecting this area to more established junctions outside the quadrangle.
