1982 Map of Boghole Spring

About this map

Mitchell Ranch and other isolated homesteads anchor this high-desert landscape in Malheur County during the early 1980s. The terrain is defined by the sharp elevations of the Oregon Canyon Mountains and the drainage of Oregon Canyon, where water sources like Boghole Spring, Juniper Spring, and Seep Spring provide critical points of interest in an otherwise arid expanse. The southern portion of the map is marked by the Old Military Reservation Boundary, reflecting historical land divisions that persisted into the late twentieth century.
