2023 Map of Big Pasture Creek

About this map

Steens Mountain dominates the landscape of southeastern Oregon, where deep glacial carving has formed the dramatic Kiger Gorge. This high-altitude terrain is preserved within the Steens Mountain Wilderness, a region defined by its sharp vertical relief and the drainage systems of the Wildhorse and Kiger Creeks Wild and Scenic River. The map captures the complex hydrology of the eastern fault block, where numerous waterways like McCoy Creek, Cucamonga Creek, and Big Pasture Creek descend from high ridges toward the valley floor.
