2014 Map of Spring Butte

About this map

Newberry Volcano dominates the central topography of this high-desert landscape in the Deschutes National Forest. The map reveals a complex network of volcanic features, including Ipsoot Butte, Green Butte, and the namesake Spring Butte to the south. This terrain is characterized by cinder cones and expansive pumice fields like Sand Flat, reflecting the area's recent geological activity. The land is strictly partitioned by the intersection of three county lines: Deschutes, Klamath, and Lake. A dense web of forest service infrastructure, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 22 Rd and Sand Flats Rd, provides access across these cinder uplands, illustrating the modern management of these timber and recreational lands within the high Oregon desert.
