About this map

Sheepherder Monument Butte and Little Grassy Butte rise above the high desert floor in this 2010 survey of Jefferson County. The landscape is defined by its distinct volcanic topography, including Big Grassy Butte and Gerber Butte, which provided significant landmarks for early travelers and sheepherders. The terrain reflects the transition from open grazing land to a modern grid of county roads such as E 2300 N and E 2200 N.

Major transportation routes like Hamer Rd and Egin-Hamer Rd cross the quadrangle, alongside the historic path denoted by Hawgood Crossing Rd. The southeastern portion of the map is marked by Little Grassy Ridge, illustrating the subtle elevation changes characteristic of this portion of the Snake River Plain. This document records the intersection of industrial-era road planning with the enduring volcanic features of the Idaho landscape.
