This is a map document illustrating the Lower Deschutes River Back Country Byway in Oregon. The map displays a scenic driving route that extends approximately 100 miles along Highway 197 and Highway 216, connecting the town of Maupin in the south to the Tygh Valley area in the north, with access to Highway 97 near Macks Canyon to the east.

The byway features multiple recreation areas and points of interest distributed along the route, including campgrounds, day use areas, launching ramps, trailheads, restrooms, and fishing access points at locations such as Blue Hole, White River Falls, Sandy Beach, Sherars Falls, Buckhollow, Jones Canyon, Rattlesnake Canyon, and Macks Canyon. The map identifies facilities managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs Reservation, and Oregon State Parks, with additional private and other state lands marked throughout the corridor. A legend provides comprehensive symbols distinguishing between federal highways, state highways, roads, hiking trails, and various recreational facilities. The map includes accessibility indicators and notes that detailed trip planning and current conditions information can be obtained through designated visitor centers and online resources. This document serves as a recreational planning and navigation tool for the Lower Deschutes River Wild & Scenic River Corridor region.
