About this map

Squaw Flat anchors this high-desert landscape in Malheur County, where water management is the primary marker of human activity. The terrain is defined by a sophisticated network of small catchments and livestock watering points, ranging from the isolated Coyote Holes Reservoir in the west to the southern Yellow Fingers Reservoir. This 2011 survey reveals how the local geography has been adapted for ranching, with named features like Loveland Horse Camp serving as central hubs for activity near Loveland Canyon Reservoir.

Surface drainage is dominated by the seasonal paths of Dry Creek and Coyote Creek, which wind between distinctive geological formations. Prominent landmarks such as Mouse Trap Butte, Garlow Butte, and Coyote Butte provide essential orientation points across the plateau. The infrastructure is primarily utilitarian, consisting of a sparse road network including Skull Creek Rd and Upper Horse Camp Reservoir Rd, facilitating access to remote stations like Mouse Trap Reservoir.
