Just after the two forks merge about 15 miles (24 km) northeast of Medford,[13] Little Butte Creek receives Lake Creek on the left bank, flowing through the community of the same name at river mile (RM) 17 or river kilometer (RK) 27.[5][10] Lake Creek drains 15 square miles (39 km2).[3] The creek is crossed by South Fork Little Butte Creek Road in Lake Creek.[5] Water is diverted here into the Joint System Canal to provide irrigation for the Medford region and to fill Agate Lake.[6] A few miles west, it receives Salt Creek and Lick Creek on the right bank, which have watersheds of 17 and 16 square miles (44 and 41 km2), respectively.[3] Oregon Route 140 crosses the creek at RM 10 (RK 16).[14]
The creek turns southwest, flowing through Eagle Point.[3] Two roads span the stream in Eagle Point: East Main Street at RM 5 (RK  , and Oregon Route 62 at RM 4 (RK 6).[15] Near RM 3 (RK 5), Little Butte Creek receives Antelope Creek on the left. Antelope Creek is its largest tributary, draining 58 square miles (150 km2).[3][6] Agate Lake on Dry Creek is located in the Antelope Creek watershed.[3][10] At RM 1.5 (RK 2.4) the creek is crossed by Agate Road.[16] It then flows into the Rogue River 132 miles (212 km) from its mouth at the Pacific Ocean.[17] Little Butte Creek's mouth is located approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Eagle Point, and about 1 mile (1.6 km) southeast of Upper Table Rock, in the Denman Wildlife Area.[3][10]iphone 3gs repair
