2020 Map of Lone Grave Butte

About this map

Lone Grave Butte commands the center of this landscape, a prominent volcanic feature in the high desert of Lake County. This 2020 survey illustrates a region defined by seasonal water systems and cattle-ranching geography, where the Lone Grave Waterhole and the winding course of the Guano Slough provide vital resources in an arid environment. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Guano Valley to the elevated northern reaches of Guano Canyon. Connectivity across this remote part of Oregon is maintained by Beattys Butte Rd, which skirts the base of the butte. Points of interest like Buckaroo Pass and West Road Gulch reflect the localized nomenclature of the area’s ranching and topographical history.
