2011 Map of Aldrich Mountain South

About this map

Murderers Creek and its southern fork carve through this high-country landscape in Grant County, defining a network of drainages and isolated encampments. Early 21st-century topography shows a land utilized for seasonal livestock and forestry, anchored by the Murderers Creek Ranch and the Murders Creek Rd corridor. Named springs and camps like Cabbage Patch Spring and Todd Creek Camp indicate the critical importance of water access in this high-elevation terrain. Landforms such as Shake Table and Timber Mountain dominate the southern portion of the sheet, while the northern reaches are marked by timbered slopes and creek-fed gulches. The presence of Weaver Cabin and various seasonal camps highlights the persistent human footprint in these remote reaches of the Ochoco and Malheur national forest regions.
