1999 Map of Alsup Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Malheur National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in the late 20th century, where the South Fork John Day River carves a path through the southern foothills of Alsup Mountain. This area shows a pattern of high-country ranching and forest management, evidenced by numerous historical sites such as Brown Ranch, Carey Ranch, and the Bear Tree Guard Station. The drainage network is dense with named springs like Alsup Spring and Siamese Spring, vital for the livestock that once grazed these meadows. To the south, water management is visible at Yellowjacket Lake, which is secured by an Earth Dam. This survey documents a quiet era of the Grant and Harney county border, capturing remote locations like Delles Creek Camp and the Hunter Cabin before they were lost to the elements.
