About this map

Pine Mtn and the surrounding high desert terrain dominate this part of Central Oregon within the Deschutes National Forest. The landscape is characterized by significant volcanic features and ephemeral drainage patterns, most notably the seasonal course of the Dry River to the north. These topographical landmarks, including Pine Ridge and the Kotzman Basin, define the grazing and forest lands south of the modern highway corridor.

Transportation through this arid reach relies on a network of named tracks such as Fox Butte Rd and Moffitt Rd, which skirt the bases of the prominent buttes. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of forest management boundaries and private land sections, highlighting the isolation of features like Whitaker Holes in a region where water sources and elevation dictate the historical movement across the basin.
