2011 Map of Bronx Canyon

About this map

Finnegan Creek and Buck Hollow Creek define the drainage patterns of this high-plateau landscape in Wasco County. The terrain is deeply incised by a network of steep draws and canyons, including its namesake Bronx Canyon, as well as Paradise Canyon and Golden Canyon in the southeastern corner. This 2011 survey reveals a landscape largely shaped by ranching and rural access, with local movement facilitated by named corridors such as Finnegan Rd and Wilson Rd. Small impoundments like Bibby Pond are vital features in this arid environment. The map provides a detailed view of family-named landmarks such as Bauman Draw, Karlen Draw, and Rogers Canyon, reflecting the generational footprint of land use in north-central Oregon.
