2017 Map of Hamner Butte

About this map

Hamner Butte and Saddle Butte dominate the central topography of this section of the Deschutes National Forest, where the volcanic landscape meets the drainage of the Deschutes Basin. In the northern reaches, the waters of Davis Lake are fed by Odell Cr and Ranger Cr, marking a critical hydrologic point near the Deschutes Co and Klamath Co line. The map reveals a complex network of forest development roads and specialized runs, such as the Hamner-Davis Run and Gilchrist Express, which suggest a landscape managed for both timber access and recreational transit. Further south, the terrain descends toward the marshes of Crescent Cr near the volcanic landmark of Black Rock, providing a clear view of the transition from high buttes to meadow-laced riparian corridors.
