1971 Map of Acty Mountain NE

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Basque Hills dominate the central landscape of this Harney County region, representing the stark, high-desert topography of southeastern Oregon during the early 1970s. The terrain is defined by dramatic drainage systems, most notably Funnel Canyon which carves through the elevations. This map is particularly valuable for its documentation of water sources in an arid environment, specifically locating Red Waterhole nestled in the western folds of the hills. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by a network of Jeep Trails and specific landmarks like Prospect in the southeast corner. The transition between the high ridges and the broader plains of Butcher Flat and Hawks Valley illustrates the complex volcanic and erosional history that shaped this portion of the Oregon desert before modern developments significantly altered the primitive road networks.
