1959 Map of Broken Top

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Broken Top Crater dominates this volcanic landscape of the Deschutes National Forest, where the Bend Glacier and Crook Glacier cling to the high peaks. The 1959 survey reveals an area defined by its alpine hydrology and seasonal camps, with water moving from the Green Lakes and Soda Spring toward the lower elevations of Dutchman Flat. Forest management and recreation infrastructure are well-established, noted by sites like Satan Creek Forest Camp and the Egan Memorial Lodge near the southern boundary. To the north and east, the map traces early water management via the Highline Ditch and Young Ditch, alongside a network of specialized trails such as the Trout Creek Trail and Scott Trail. This record highlights the balance of wilderness and early development, from the Cinder Pit near Melvin Butte to isolated landmarks like Ditch Cabin and several trail shelters.
