2013 Map of Sunset Lake

About this map

Sunset Lake and Rocky Lake sit amidst a desert landscape defined by volcanic landforms and complex administrative boundaries in southeastern Idaho. This high-desert terrain is punctuated by distinctive volcanic prominences, including Rock Corral Butte in the east and Antelope Butte in the southwest corner. The map documents a significant intersection of county lines where Butte, Blaine, and Bingham counties converge. The isolated nature of these water bodies and the surrounding trail networks reflect a landscape primarily used for seasonal grazing and outdoor navigation. Little Wildhorse Butte further characterizes the geological transition across the Butte County and Bingham County border, offering a detailed view of the topographical relief and remote drainage patterns of the Snake River Plain periphery.
