About this map

Fox Valley and the surrounding high country of Grant County are defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and spring-fed meadows within the Malheur National Forest. This 2020 topographic survey illustrates a rural landscape where narrow ranching roads like Justice Ranch Ln and Fox Valley Ln traverse the northern valley floor before the terrain rises sharply into the timbered slopes of the southern half.

Hydrological features are particularly dense here, ranging from the well-named Slip Up Cr and McHaley Cr to the high-elevation Tamarack Swamp. Significant landmarks such as Black Butte, Emergency Point, and the expansive Belshaw Meadows provide essential orientation for researchers and forest users. The map captures the transition from the settlement area of Beech Creek to the rugged, protected forest lands, documenting the modern footprint of these remote Oregon highlands.
