2017 Map of Sixteen Butte

About this map

Sixteen Butte stands as a central landmark in this high-desert landscape within the Deschutes National Forest. The 2017 terrain is defined by a series of volcanic features, including Poly Top Butte, Rogers Butte, and the distinctive Horseshoe Butte. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the lava-strewn expanse of The Devils Garden provides a stark contrast to the timbered slopes found elsewhere in the forest. The map documents a complex network of forest access including Natl Forest Develop Road 23 Rd and specialized routes like Ohv #90, reflecting the modern management of this public land for both transit and recreation. The boundary between Deschutes and Lake Counties cuts across the northern peaks, marking the jurisdictional divide in this high-elevation wilderness.
