About this map

The Crooked River dominates the northern reaches of this Crook County landscape, feeding into the expansive Prineville Reservoir. Along the southern shore, Powder House Cove and Juniper Canyon mark the transition from the river valley to the rising volcanic uplands. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks like Taylor Butte and Bear Creek Butte, which overlook a network of seasonal drainages including Williamson Creek and Perry Creek. Evidence of modern land management and recreation is visible through the extensive trail system, including the Millican Plateau Tr 84 Trl and various other numbered routes on the Millican Plateau. The presence of the Agape Farm Airport and a grid of residential lanes named for trees—such as Redwood Ln and Myrtlewood Ln—points to contemporary rural development south of the reservoir.
