Black Butte is an extinct stratovolcano in the U.S. state of Oregon. Located in Jefferson County, it is part of Deschutes National Forest. Black Butte forms part of the Cascade volcanic arc. The butte lies just south of the Metolius Springs, which merge to form the headwaters of the Metolius River. The Metolius River's basin sustains a wide array of plant life, large and small mammals, and more than 80 bird species.

  • Black Butte is an extinct stratovolcano in the U.S. state of Oregon. Located in Jefferson County, it is part of Deschutes National Forest. Black Butte forms part of the Cascade volcanic arc. The butte lies just south of the Metolius Springs, which merge to form the headwaters of the Metolius River. The Metolius River's basin sustains a wide array of plant life, large and small mammals, and more than 80 bird species. Black Butte last erupted during the Pleistocene; geologists have estimated its age at 0.4, 0.5, and 1.43 ± 0.33 million years ago. The duration of the eruptions that built the volcano remains unclear, though the activity likely coincided with large-scale block faulting in the vicinity of the Metolius Springs. Black Butte has a prominent volcanic cone and is made up of mafic (rich in magnesium and iron) basaltic andesite lava. Despite having a well-preserved, symmetrical shape and an unexposed pyroclastic core, the butte has undergone moderate erosion, with shallow ravines, deep gullies on its sides, and rocks with weathering rinds. A number of cinder cones and a volcanic field also lie nearby the butte. There was a fire lookout ground house on the butte, which was burned down by the United States Forest Service in 2016. A white cupola structure sits on the top of the butte as well as a more modern fire lookout tower. The resort community Black Butte Ranch lies nearby and offers recreational activities like horseback riding, biking, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, and paddleboarding; during the winter, activities include Nordic skiing and snowshoeing.

  • El Black Butte es un estratovolcán que constituye el punto más alto en el centro del estado de Oregón, al nordeste de los EE. UU. Hace parte de la Cordillera de las Cascadas y se encuentra en el parque nacional de Deschutes. Al ser un buen punto de observación en la región, su cumbre alberga, desde principios del siglo XX, instalaciones destinadas a la supervisión de los posibles incendios forestales. (es)
  • Black Butte est un stratovolcan éteint culminant à 1 962 mètres d'altitude dans le centre de l'Oregon, au Nord-Ouest des États-Unis. Il fait partie de la chaîne des Cascades et se trouve dans la forêt nationale de Deschutes. Constituant un bon point de vue sur la région, son sommet abrite depuis un siècle environ des installations destinées à l'observation des feux de forêt. (fr)
