The Cinder Butte Fire burned rangeland and scrub woodlands east and southeast of Glass Buttes and north of Wagontire. The main vegetation burned by the fire was grass and sagebrush along with scattered areas of western juniper trees. No residences or commercial structures were lost; however, four ranch outbuildings were destroyed along with two long-abandoned homestead cabins.Matsumoto, Samantha, "Lightning Sparks 15 Fires in Umpqua National Forest", Oregonian/OregonLive, Portland, Oregon, 9 August 2017.
