2023 Map of Hat Butte

About this map

Glass Buttes and Little Glass Butte dominate this high-desert landscape in northern Lake County, an area defined by its volcanic geology and sparse water resources. The terrain is marked by significant topographic shifts, ranging from the volcanic heights to the broad expanse of Wise Flat and Gilchrist Valley. Settlement is virtually absent, with the map recording a network of livestock or wildlife water sources such as Mercury Reservoir, North Glass Butte Reservoir, and Black Rock Reservoir.
