2011 Map of Saddle Butte

About this map

Saddle Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this eastern Malheur County landscape, centered within a vast network of drainage basins and seasonal watercourses. The 2011 topography reveals a remote terrain defined by the winding paths of Ryegrass Creek and Bull Creek. These water systems dictate the local geography, illustrating the sparse but vital hydrologic patterns of the high desert. This map serves as a clear record of the natural contours and the subtle transition of the land before any modern heavy development, preserving the exact placement of the butte and its relationship to the surrounding drainage networks.
