1999 Map of Welch Butte

About this map

The high volcanic landscape of the Winema National Forest and the eastern fringes of Crater Lake National Park dominate this topographic study, updated at the end of the 1990s. The terrain is defined by the prominent Welch Butte and the vast expanse of the Antelope Desert to the southeast. A complex network of drainages, including Cottonwood Creek, Silent Creek, and Desert Creek, underscores the hydrologic pattern of this arid timberland. The presence of features like the Sink and numerous forest trails reflects the remote character of Klamath County, where the transition from dense national forest to open desert terrain is captured with precision.
