1968 Map of Big Pasture Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Steens Mountain dominates this portion of Harney County, characterized by the dramatic incision of Kiger Gorge and a complex drainage system. In the late 1960s, this landscape was defined by its water sources and high-elevation terrain, where Kiger Creek and Cucamonga Creek flow through deeply carved valleys. The presence of Doe Camp indicates seasonal human activity in an area otherwise managed through a network of pack trails and jeep trails. Numerous springs feed small tributaries like Snow Creek, Horton Creek, and Dingle Creek, which eventually reach the larger basins. The eastern portion of the sheet is marked by the distinct Big Pasture Creek and the curiously named Hole in the Ground Creek, reflecting the specific geography of the Oregon high desert before modern infrastructural expansion shifted local access patterns.
