2017 Map of Antone

About this map

Mary Waterman Grave and the Spanish Gulch Cem offer specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family histories in this corner of Wheeler County. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of the Ochoco National Forest, where drainage systems like Fred Cr and Rock Cr carve through the terrain. Evidence of early water management is visible in the network of canals, including the Phillip-McFadden Ditch and Erickson Ditch, which redirect water through the valleys. The presence of the Antone Ranch Airport near Antone Ln suggests the importance of light aviation for remote ranching operations. From the heights of Spanish Peak down to Buck Pasture, the map documents a transition from forested peaks to the open gulches that once supported local prospecting and livestock.
