About this map

The Deschutes National Forest encompasses this volcanic landscape, where the convergence of Deschutes, Klamath, and Lake counties highlights a complex administrative boundary. The terrain is defined by a series of distinct volcanic landforms, including the prominent Spring Butte, Ipsoot Butte, and the clustered Abacus Buttes. These features reflect the region's geologic history, punctuated by cinder cones and basaltic rises that overlook the expansive Sand Flat.

Access through this high-desert forest environment is provided by the Natl Forest Develop Road 22 Rd and South Ice Cave Road, which skirt the bases of peaks like Green Butte and Skoksam Hill. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System grid across T22S through T24S, essential for locating specific land parcels and historical forestry activities near Alignment Butte and Taba Butte.
