About this map

Antelope Reservoir dominates the southern landscape of this Malheur County high-desert region, serving as a vital water source in an area defined by its irrigation network. The map reveals a sophisticated system of water management, including the Antelope Feeder Canal, N Antelope Canal, and the Antelope Canal, which distribute water across the expanse of Antelope Flat. These engineering features highlight the agricultural dependencies of the eastern Oregon interior during the early 21st century.

Local settlements are represented by Jordan Valley and Danner Valley, connected by a network of rural routes such as Danner Rd and Jack Creek Rd. The terrain is shaped by active waterways like Jordan Cr, which carves through the Jordan Creek Canyon. Smaller hydrological features like Hooker Cr, Downey Cr, and Sheep Spring punctuate the arid surroundings, providing essential landmarks for local history and land use research.
