2023 Map of Butter Creek Junction

About this map

The high plateau and deep-cut drainage basins of Butter Creek characterize this region of eastern Oregon, where the landscape transitions across the Morrow Co Umatilla Co line. Central to the map is the settlement of Pine City, situated near the confluence of the main channel and Little Butter Creek. This area illustrates a classic western land-use pattern, with modern road names like Wagon Trail Rd and Campbell Rd following the straight-line section boundaries of the Public Land Survey System, while older routes like Butter Creek Rd wind naturally through the creek bottoms.
