1957 Map of Shafer Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Shafer Butte stands as the central landmark of this high-elevation Boise landscape, which was being developed for regional communication and recreation during the mid-20th century. The peaks are dotted with modern infrastructure, including the VABM Lookout 7582, KBOI TV Towers, and Kido Tv, marking the area as a critical hub for Idaho broadcasting. Lower slopes within the Boise National Forest are defined by the winding Bogus Basin Road and the early layout of Bogus Basin State Park, where several ski tows are already in operation.
