2010 Map of Middle Butte

About this map

Twin Buttes and Middle Butte dominate this high-desert landscape in Bingham County, serving as the primary geological landmarks for the surrounding Snake River Plain. The terrain is defined by its volcanic relief and a sparse, rectilinear road network that cuts across the arid floor. Access to the region is provided by Twin Buttes Rd and Section Rd, which navigate the open stretches between the volcanic formations. Other corridors like 2000 West, Grant Rd, and 1900 West Rd further define the land divisions. This survey captures a moment of modern land management in an area where the topography is shaped more by ancient geology than by dense human settlement, illustrating how the natural features continue to dictate the placement of local infrastructure.
