2017 Map of Jackass Butte
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Jackass Mountain and its nearby namesake, Jackass Butte, dominate this high-desert landscape in Harney County. This 2017 survey details the complex hydrologic features of the Blitzen Valley, where the Buena Vista Canal and Buena Vista Lake define the eastern lowlands. The terrain rises sharply to the west, marked by the prominent volcanic profile of Black Rim. The network of local routes, including Jack Mountain Rd and Boulder Res Rd, reveals how the area is navigated for land management and ranching. The map preserves the exact alignment of these desert roads and water management features, providing an essential record for those studying the contemporary geography and water rights history of this part of the Oregon high desert.
