2017 Map of La Pine

About this map

Deschutes National Forest dominates this Central Oregon landscape, where the Deschutes River and Little Deschutes River converge amidst a volcanic topography of cinder cones and meadows. The settlement of La Pine serves as the primary hub along the eastern edge, showing a distinct grid of residential roads like Paulina Ave and Davis Ave that contrast with the winding forest service routes to the west. Evidence of early land use and local heritage is anchored by the Masten Cem, located near the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations including Pringle Butte, Cruiser Butte, and Wampus Butte, which overlook expansive openings like Dorrance Meadow. This map documents the intersection of public forest management and a growing residential community in a high-desert environment defined by its watercourses and prehistoric geology.
