Hoodoo Butte is a cinder cone butte in the Cascade Range of northern Oregon, located near Santiam Pass just west of the Cascade Crest. A ski area, also named Hoodoo, is located on the northwest through northeast flanks of the cone, and the summit area includes the top stations of two chairlifts along with several radio antennas. Immediately to the east lies Hayrick Butte, a prime example of a tuya.
