2017 Map of Brannan Gulch

About this map

Whitman National Forest land dominates this section of Baker County, where the topography is defined by high peaks and a complex network of gulches and drainage creeks. In the northern reaches, Black Mtn and Little Bald Mtn overlook a landscape carved by Spring Gulch and Rattlesnake Gulch. The southern portion of the map centers on the Burnt River corridor, where the presence of Reeds Ditch indicates a history of water management for local agriculture or industry. This 2017 survey details the access roads vital to this forested area, including Skyline Rd and Chinacamp Rd, which wind through timbered slopes near Bald Mtn. Local water sources like Frog Spring and Bald Mountain Spring provide essential landmarks for those navigating the high country between Cow Creek and Lake Creek.
