2013 Map of Rock Butte

About this map

Rock Butte and Rock Corral Butte rise from this high desert landscape on the boundary of Butte and Bingham counties. The area is defined by a system of ranching infrastructure and water management in an arid environment, characterized by small reservoirs such as Cow Pasture Reservoir Number 1, Cow Pasture Reservoir Number 2, and Moose Reservoir. This 2013 survey reveals the sparse network of rural access routes, including Cow Pasture Rd, which connect these vital water sources across the sagebrush and volcanic terrain. The map's detail provides a clear look at the Public Land Survey System divisions, marking various townships and ranges like t1s r30e and t2s r30e that dictate the organization of this remote Idaho backcountry.
