2014 Map of Big Mowich Mountain

About this map

Ochoco National Forest and Malheur National Forest converge at this high-altitude landscape along the boundary of Grant and Harney counties. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks including Big Mowich Mountain and Snow Mountain, with numerous water sources like Beaver Reservoir and the headwaters of South Fork Beaver Cr supporting the ecosystem. A dense network of forest service roads, such as Snow Mountain Rd and Donnelly Rd, provides access across the ridge lines. Hidden within the folds of the landscape are specific grazing and transit points like Lehman Meadow and Button Flat. The high concentration of named springs, including Timothy Spring, Silver Spring, and Adams Spring, highlights the critical importance of water management in these high Oregon forests.
