1998 Map of Butler Butte

About this map

Umpqua National Forest and Rogue River National Forest meet at the Douglas and Jackson county line, where complex terrain and water systems define the landscape. This late-twentieth-century revision highlights a region shaped by timber and outdoor recreation, notably featuring the Words Tallest Sugarpine landmark and several remote camps like Freezeout Camp and Whisky Camp. The map details the drainage patterns of Jackson Creek and its many tributaries, such as Tallow Creek and Crooked Creek, which flow through the high ridges of the Grassy Range and Bald Ridge. Geologic interest is found at Cow Horn Arch and the prominent heights of Butler Butte, while various quarries indicate local resource extraction in this wooded mountainous area.
