1999 Map of Bear Butte

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Fremont National Forest and Winema National Forest converge in this high-desert volcanic landscape, where the geography is defined by a series of prominent peaks and meadows. The area around Bear Butte and Doeskin Butte reveals a rugged drainage system where Doeskin Creek and Buckskin Creek carve through the timbered terrain. Historically, the presence of the Porter Ranch and landmarks like Emery Well suggest a history of high-country grazing and seasonal habitation near Bear Flat. The map also documents the industrial footprint of the region through several Cinder Pit locations and a Quarry, reflecting the geologic utility of the volcanic cinder cones and buttes found here, from Fire Butte to Doe Butte.
