1968 Map of Alvord Hot Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Steens Mountain dominates the western landscape of this high-desert region, where dramatic relief drops toward the Alvord Desert (Depression). The map documents a rugged resource-extraction and ranching frontier in Harney County during the late 1960s, evidenced by a Mine and Tramway located near Dry Creek. Water is the defining constraint of the era, marked by numerous named points like Belzar Spring and the Alvord Hot Springs.
