2017 Map of Round Mountain

About this map

Deschutes National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape of the Cascade Range, where a series of volcanic buttes and ridges define the central Oregon topography. The namesake Round Mtn and Round Mountain Pass serve as prominent landmarks for those navigating the forest's extensive road network, including the S Century Dr and Co Hwy 42. The area is characterized by a high concentration of distinct peaks such as Lolah Butte, Siah Butte, and the clustered formation known as Three Trappers. This 2017 survey details the sophisticated system of National Forest development roads and snowmobile trails, like Snomo #2, that facilitate modern timber management and seasonal recreation. Water features are relatively sparse on this volcanic terrain, though the headwaters area of the Fall River appears in the southeastern section, marking a rare break in the dry forest landscape.
