2023 Map of Glass Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Glass Butte and Buck Butte dominate this high-desert landscape in central Oregon, where the border between Deschutes and Lake counties cuts through the Gilchrist Valley. The map reveals a land defined by water management and natural springs, essential for ranching and wildlife in this arid environment. Named water sources such as Chesebro Spring, Cabin Spring, and Dribble Spring are scattered across the slopes, while man-made improvements like Swale Reservoir, Question Reservoir, and Musser Reservoir show the infrastructure of the range. The terrain transitions from the open expanse of Perry Flat in the northwest to the complex volcanic topography of the Glass Buttes range, with drainage through features like Musser Draw. Buck Creek Rd provides the primary access through the northern valley floor.
