About this map

Newberry Volcano dominates this central Oregon landscape, where volcanic features and timber roads define the high desert terrain. Located within the Deschutes National Forest, the area is marked by a concentration of distinct peaks including Indian Butte, Willow Butte, and the Crater Buttes. The geography reveals a complex system of cinder cones and lava flows, with Amota Butte and Red Butte standing as prominent landmarks.

Transport through this part of Deschutes and Lake Counties is managed by an extensive network of forestry routes, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 22 Rd and Natl Forest Develop Road 24 Rd. These roads provide access to the timberlands and geological sites near Sugar Pine Ridge. This 2014 survey illustrates the intersection of natural volcanic history and the modern administrative management of Oregon's interior forests.
