1957 Map of Walters Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Snake River carves a deep path through this volcanic landscape along the border of Canyon and Owyhee counties, anchoring a region defined by its reliance on early irrigation and river crossings. High above the water, Walters Ferry (Site) marks an important historical transition point where the Owyhee Highway meets the river's edge. The rugged uplands are dominated by volcanic features like Walters Butte, White Butte, and Guffey Butte, while the lower benches show a complex network of water management, including the Waldvogel Canal and numerous laterals like the Midway Lateral.
