2023 Map of Sinker Butte

About this map

Sinker Butte and Sinker Creek Butte command the high desert landscape above the Snake River, marking a territory defined by historic Western travel corridors. This high plateau in Owyhee County preserves the distinct paths of the Oregon Trl and the Emigrant Trl, which navigate the complex breaks and ravines leading toward the river canyon. The topography is characterized by the wide expanse of Murphy Flat and the deep incision of Sinker Creek, which carves a rugged path through the volcanic terrain.
