About this map

Antelope Reservoir dominates this high-desert landscape in southeastern Oregon, revealing a complex network of water management infrastructure essential for the arid environment. The Antelope Feeder Canal and Antelope Canal trace long, winding paths across the terrain, drawing from and feeding into water bodies like Jordan Cr and Antelope Cr. The presence of these engineered waterways, alongside named areas like Antelope Flat, highlights the historical effort to sustain agriculture and ranching in Malheur County.

Local topography is defined by significant features such as Jordan Creek Canyon and Downey Cyn. Transportation through this corner of the state is anchored by the Ion HWY, which cuts diagonally across the quadrangle, connecting dispersed settlements like Jordan Valley and Danner Valley. This survey provides a clear look at the relationship between the natural drainage of creeks like Cantor Cr and the human-made irrigation systems that define the region's character.
