About this map

Deschutes National Forest dominates this Central Oregon landscape, characterized by volcanic topography and a network of seasonal trails. The northern half of the quadrangle is defined by prominent elevations including Masten Butte, Eagle Rock, and the central Cryder Butte. These features rise above a terrain marked by winter-specific transit routes such as the Gilchrist Express (Snow) and Hamner-Davis-Run (Snow), illustrating the importance of seasonal access in this high-altitude forest environment.

Water management and natural hydrology converge in the southeastern corner, where the Little Deschutes River meets Crescent Cr. Historical agricultural or forest-service infrastructure is evident at Kemp Bridge and the Mayfield Ditch. The survey clearly delineates the administrative transition between Deschutes and Klamath counties, following the township and range lines across the northern extent of the forest.
