2023 Map of Brady Butte

About this map

Brady Butte and the surrounding high country of Klamath County define this landscape of specialized water management and distinct volcanic geography. The terrain is characterized by broad plateaus and flats, such as Antelope Flat and Rocky Plateau, where numerous small-scale water projects have been established to sustain the arid environment. A dense network of reservoirs including Midway Reservoir, Antelope Reservoir, and Willow Valley Reservoir indicates the critical importance of water storage for regional ranching or land management. Structural landforms like Horse Camp Rim and the curious series of knolls known as The Bumpheads provide significant topographical relief against the canyon systems of Bear Valley Canyon and the drainage of the East Branch Lost River. This 2023 survey details the modern infrastructure of Bureau of Land Management routes like BLM RD 40-14.5-4.0 that navigate the ridges between isolated springs such as Rimrock Spring and Alkali Spring.
