2023 Map of Hamner Butte

About this map

Hamner Butte dominates this high-elevation landscape within the Deschutes National Forest, where the volcanic terrain of the Cascades defines the drainage and transport patterns. To the north, Davis Lake is fed by Ranger Creek and Odell Creek, while the southern reaches are marked by the winding path of Crescent Creek. The boundary between Deschutes and Klamath counties cuts across the northern shoreline, an area where water resources like Dell Spring were essential for early forest navigation. The map shows a transition from motorized access along Co HWY 1352 to a network of specialized routes, including the Gilchrist Express Trl and the Royce Mountain Loop Trl, which follow the contours of the many shield-like peaks such as Saddle Butte and Ringo Butte.
