USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
The Deschutes River carves a central path through this section of the High Desert, revealing a landscape defined by volcanic geology and early 20th-century irrigation engineering. Irrigation is the primary feature of the era, with an intricate network including the Columbia Southern Canal, Swalley Canal, and the Old Redmond Bend Canal drawing water toward the arid plateaus. The topography is marked by prominent cinder cones such as Long Butte and Laidlaw Butte, which overlook numerous Cinder Pits and gravel operations essential for local construction and road building.
