About this map

Craters of the Moon National Preserve and the adjacent Craters of the Moon National Monument dominate this southern Idaho landscape, where the administrative boundary between Blaine and Butte counties cuts through a series of townships and ranges. The terrain is characterized by the unique geological features of the Snake River Plain, including Carey Kipuka, an island of older land surrounded by younger lava flows.

Logistical access to this high-desert environment is provided by Laidlaw Park Rd, which traverses through Litte Park toward the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. In this arid region, water management is represented by the isolated Junction Reservoir, a critical landmark for those navigating the transition from the monument's volcanic fields into the neighboring grazing lands. This survey reflects the modern management of federal lands at the intersection of several township lines, including t1s r23e and t1n r24e.
