1992 Map of Bear Canyon Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

Och Oco National Forest and Malheur National Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape in Harney County, where the forest boundaries meet along a complex network of volcanic buttes and seasonal drainages. Bear Canyon Butte and Emigrant Butte serve as prominent landmarks for navigation in a region defined more by its water sources than by permanent settlements. The map shows an intricate system of vital water points, including Dipping Vat Spring, Lost Guard Spring, and Alder Creek Spring, which were essential for the historical livestock operations in this part of Oregon.
