2017 Map of Moonlight Butte

About this map

Moonlight Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this high-desert landscape within Lake County, Oregon. The terrain is defined by its arid character and specific water management features, including the Sagehen Waterhole and Little Sagehen Waterhole. These named water sources, along with Bull Lake in the northwest, indicate the historical and modern importance of water rights and livestock management in the Great Basin region. The map also delineates Browns Valley to the east, illustrating how the natural topography dictates the flow of movement through this sparsely populated territory. This 2017 survey provides a precise look at the township and range divisions of t24s r20e and t25s r20e, serving as a vital record for land use and topographic study in the Oregon interior.
