The Oregon Badlands is a wilderness area of approximately 29,000 acres located east of Bend.  There are ancient juniper trees, sagebrush and arid areas in addition to rocks formations and caves.  Because there are century old trees, this wilderness area should be treated with respect and would not be appropriate for bushwhackers or any reality show wanting to live off the land.

The Badlands are located close to Bend, for easy access to accomodation and services. Should you be filming in the Badlands, please remember to carry in plenty of water and to leave as little trace as possible.

Permits will be issued by the Bureau of Land Management (please allow at least TWO MONTHS prior to applying for a permit).

Lava Butte facing North. May 26, 2017 approx. 2.30pm

Lava Butte is a cinder cone in central Oregon, United States, just west of US Highway 97 between the towns of Bend, Oregon, and Sunriver, Oregon. It is part of a system of small cinder cones on the northwest flank of Newberry Volcano, a massive shield volcano which rises to the southeast. The cinder cone is capped by a crater which extends about 60 feet (20 m) deep beneath its south rim, and 160 feet (50 m) deep from the 5,020-foot (1,530 m) summit on its north side. Lava Butte is part of the Newberry National Volcanic Monument.

Permit required from the Deschutes National Forest. Minimum 20 day notice please.
