About this map

Seekseequa Junction serves as a central point in this Jefferson County landscape, where the high desert terrain meets the carved path of the Deschutes River. The geography is defined by prominent volcanic markers such as Luna Butte and Coyote Butte, which rise above the surrounding plateaus. To the north, the Pelton Regulating Dam controls the flow of the river, creating the Pelton Regulating Reservoir and managing water resources for the region.

A network of Bureau of Indian Affairs and local forest roads, including Metolius Bench Rd and Old Seekseequa Rd, provide access to the interior ranching and tribal lands. Water remains a vital element of this arid environment, evidenced by named features like Seekseequa Creek, Daisy Spring, and Pipp Spring. Cultural history is anchored at the Seekseequa Cemetery, situated just west of the main junction.
