Hoodoo Butte is a 5700' (1737 m) volcanic cinder cone located on the crest of the Cascade Range in central Oregon.

On your map, it's about 2.5 miles southwest of Santiam Pass (Highway US 20, milepost 81), and about 1.5 miles west of the Pacific Crest Trail. For the GPS-inclined, that's about 44.402 N, 121.882 W (WGS84 datum).

Notes:
  • Other sources of information

  • 2015 08/15 - Weather Underground "local" map of current conditions
  • 2019 11/10 - Uploading raw weather data for today, one day ago, and two days ago. Tab-separated data columns, so you can "Open With" a spreadsheet program.
    - Files are uploaded shortly after the hours of 8, 12, 16, 20.
  • 2019 12/21 - Moon phase (%) is good, but the code for computing moon rise & set times never seemed to work, so try web pages like this one.
  • 2020 03/14 - Snow depth raw data, to investigate correlation to times & events.
  • 2020 03/14 - Not just weather, but an interesting map that has weather information embedded in it.
  • 2020 06/27 - Snow depth sensor replaced
  • 2020 07/04 - Temperature & humidity sensors replaced (on top of butte).
  • 2020 11/01 - Current sensor readings "unavailable" due to software bug that thinks we are still on Daylight time. The data is being logged properly, but the program that assembles the web pages thinks it's an hour later than the current time.
  • 2020 11/07 - Current sensor readings are now available: Added code to check the output of the date & time function ("strftime()"). After years of use this procedure now appears to have trouble with the time zone.
  • 2020 11/07 - Snow depth sensor quit working as the latest storm dumped a few inches. Then it resumed working . . . "Go figure". Visited the site and found nothing unusual. Good power, good "trigger" signal. It just occasionally acts like no one's home.
