2017 Map of Acty Mountain NE

About this map

Hawks Valley anchors the southern reaches of this high-desert landscape in Harney County, illustrating the vast open drainage systems characteristic of southeastern Oregon. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation shifts, ranging from the prominent Lone Mtn in the southeast to the rugged Basque Hills at the northern boundary. Water management and seasonal flow are central to the area's geography, marked by the Red Waterhole and the descent of Canyon Creek through the eastern sections. Funnel Canyon serves as a major geographical corridor, cutting through the center of the sheet and funneling toward the lower flats. Apart from the solitary Hawk Rd, the map shows a landscape largely shaped by natural contours rather than dense human infrastructure, reflecting the enduring character of the Oregon outback.
