About this map

Flagstaff Butte and the surrounding high country of the Union and Baker County line define this area of northeastern Oregon. The landscape is dominated by the Whitman National Forest and the southern edge of the Eagle Cap Wilderness, where complex water management systems like the South Catherine Ditch and Big Creek Ditch trace the contours of the mountains.

Small clearings and high-elevation landmarks such as Taylor Green and The Black Pines provide distinct points of reference for those familiar with the local geography. A network of winter recreation routes, including the Flagstaff Snowmobile Trl and Cold Spring Loop Snowmobile Trl, connects various springs and peaks. From the heights of Angel Point and Fairview Point, the terrain drops into significant drainages like Happy Canyon and Pawnee Gulch, illustrating the transition from timbered ridges to deep canyon floors.
