2020 Map of Wagon Butte

About this map

Craters Of The Moon National Preserve encompasses the volcanic landscape of this region, where the high desert terrain is defined by distinct geologic formations. The boundary between Blaine and Lincoln counties cuts across the center of the sheet, dividing a territory marked by numerous volcanic cones including Wagon Butte, Spud Butte, and Broken Top Butte. Water management in this arid environment is evident through several named catchments and intermittent features such as Rattler Reservoir, Cut Off Reservoir, and Dry Rock Lake. A single primary thoroughfare, Kamimah Rd, provides the principal access through the preserve, passing near Wildhorse Lake and navigating the complex topography of The Blow Out. The map reveals a land utilized for both conservation and resource management, with precise township and range divisions like t2s r22e and t3s r23e framing the open rangeland and basalt flows.
