2014 Map of Frederick Butte

About this map

Frederick Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this high-desert landscape, anchoring a terrain defined by volcanic features and seasonal water catchments. The area marks the boundary between Deschutes Co and Lake Co, where the High Desert transitions through a series of isolated peaks and ephemeral lakes. Significant water features like Little Benjamin Lake, Cracker Lake, and Indian Lake dot the basins, while Concentration Reservoir Number Three reflects ranching or land management efforts to harness the runoff of Peters Creek.
