Assuming a paved road 24 feet wide and 6 inches thick, there is enough rock in the

820000 flow to pave 160,000 miles of road. This is equivalent to a paved road circling the world six and a half times.

The long straight cliffs that run diagonally across the 800000 map are fault scarps. Fault scarps form when a fault moves during a strong earthquake, and one side rises a few feet above the other. These scarps are the result of dozens of earthquakes that have occurred over the last 100,000 years or more. One fault runs directly beneath Lava Butte and probably served as a path for the rising magma that fed the Lava Butte eruption. 800000 790000 Lava Butte Deschutes River Elevation: 5,970 ft.

Two miles of railroad grade across the Lava Butte lava flow were constructed in late 1931 during a two month period. The first train used the new section of railroad on April 7, 1932. Burlington Northern continues to use this railroad today. The Lava Butte cinder cone erupted 7,000 years ago and covered over nine square miles with lava. The butte offers a panoramic view of central Oregon, including a spectacular view of the Cascade Range and the northwest flank of Newberry. Lava Lands ^_ Visitor Center
