2020 Map of Birch Creek Meadow

About this map

Birch Creek Meadow lies along the transition between the high desert of Malheur and Baker Counties in eastern Oregon. This 2020 topographical survey reveals a landscape deeply carved by drainage systems, including Whisky Gulch, Deer Gulch, and Dry Gulch, which feed into the area's primary waterways like Birch Cr and Durbin Cr. Water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by the series of three Kivett Reservoirs and numerous natural sources such as Falkner Spring, Cottonwood Spring, and Cherry Spring. Limited road access via Huntington Rd and Malheur Reservoir Rd underscores the territory's use for ranching and resource extraction, anchored by landmarks like Limestone Butte and the descriptive Stone Quarry Gulch.
