2017 Map of Morgan Butte

About this map

Fremont National Forest defines the high-elevation landscape of Lake County, where the Chewaucan River carves a deep path through the eastern Oregon high country. This modern survey illustrates the complex topographic transition between peaks like Morgan Butte and Brattain Butte, and the lower drainage systems of Coffeepot Cr and Antelope Cr. The map is particularly useful for tracking the Southern Oregon Intertie Trail, which traverses the terrain from north to south, passing through Avery Pass and near numerous high-country springs such as Marsters Spring and Antelope Spring. Significant local landmarks include the Parker Hills to the southwest and the distinct plateaus of Coffeepot Flat and Clover Flat, which demonstrate the volcanic and erosional history of the Great Basin's northwestern edge.
