About this map

Bowman Dam controls the northern reach of the Prineville Reservoir on this map, where the waters of the Crooked River are harnessed for the surrounding landscape. The area is defined by a rigorous grid of residential lanes and Bureau of Land Management routes, including SE Reservoir Rd and BLM-6555a, which transition from the reservoir's banks into higher terrain. To the east and south, the elevation rises toward prominent landmarks such as Taylor Butte and Bear Creek Butte.

The hydrography of the region is further detailed by Williamson Cr and Perry Cr, which drain the uplands near Rocky Canyon. The road network reveals a distinct naming convention for rural development, with clusters of lanes like SW Sequoia Ln and SE Myrtlewood Ln suggesting planned land use near the reservoir's edge. This map provides a clear look at the intersection of water management and rural infrastructure in the high desert of Crook County.
