2020 Map of West Myrtle Butte
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Malheur National Forest dominates this section of the Oregon high country, where the boundary between Grant Co and Harney Co bisects a landscape defined by volcanic buttes and a dense network of mountain springs. The terrain is anchored by West Myrtle Butte and Sugarloaf Mtn, with the surrounding slopes feeding numerous drainage systems including W Myrtle Cr and Bear Cr. Historically, these water sources have been vital for life in the arid uplands, as evidenced by the naming of nearly two dozen individual springs, such as Tipton Spring, Gribble Spring, and the uniquely named Wogonagat potso- na Flat Spring. Open clearings like Sallys Flat and Badger Flat break the forest cover, providing landmarks for navigation and land use in this high-elevation wilderness.
