About this map

Deschutes National Forest occupies this high desert landscape, characterized by volcanic topography and sparse water sources. The map reveals the functional infrastructure of the early 1980s, including the Sand Springs Compensation Station and a nearby heliport. Grounded in the region's geological history, the terrain is marked by distinctive features such as the subterranean Lavacicle Cave and the volcanic prominence of Plot Butte. The land use is defined by a network of 4wd tracks and evidence of local industry, specifically a Cinder Pit located between the buttes.
