1957 Map of Shafer Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Boise Ridge dominates the skyline of this 1957 field-checked survey, serving as a high-altitude backdrop for the developing recreation and communications infrastructure north of Idaho's capital. The summit of Shafer Butte stands as a primary landmark, hosting a Lookout and the prominent KBOI-TV Towers and Kido-tv installations that signify the era's expanding broadcast reach. The landscape is characterized by the established Bogus Basin State Park, where early winter sports infrastructure like the Ski Tow is already visible near Deer Point.
