2011 Map of Dickerson Flat

About this map

Dickerson Flat and Spicer Flat anchor this high desert landscape in Deschutes County, revealing a terrain defined by subtle ridges and critical water points. The map traces the utilitarian pathways of the modern era, notably Fox Butte Rd, which provides access across the arid expanse. The naming conventions of the area suggest a local history tied to resource management and perhaps the lighter side of frontier life, seen in features like Moonshine Ridge, Whiskey Rock, and Pumice Waterhole. Smaller geological landmarks such as Black Ridge and Berger Ridge break the horizontal plane of the flats, while Two Post Lake appears as a rare seasonal hydrographic feature in this dry central Oregon region.
