1998 Map of Big Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Malheur National Forest dominates this late-twentieth-century landscape in Grant County, where the high terrain of the Strawberry Range and Aldrich Mountains converges. The map documents a complex network of forest resources and hydrology, featuring numerous named water sources such as Garden Meadows Lake, Whitewater Spring, and Steagall Spring. Local history and land use are marked by sites like Parish Cabin and the point labeled Wickiup, alongside several quarries that indicate the area's geological and industrial utility. In the southern portion, the open expanse of Bear Valley contrasts with the steep drainages of Big Canyon and Crawford Gulch. This 1998 revision, managed by the Burns Ranger District and Bear Valley Ranger District, also highlights the protected Strawberry Mountain Wilderness along the northern boundary, showing the balance between conservation and active forest management.
