1983 Map of Brothers

About this map

High desert landscapes and volcanic geology dominate this central Oregon survey, which covers the transition from the high lava plains into the southern reaches of the Ochoco National Forest. Small ranching outposts like Millican, Brothers, and Imperial are positioned along the primary east-west corridor, revealing the sparse settlement patterns of the early 1980s. The terrain is defined by dramatic rises such as Bear Creek Buttes and Pine Mountain, while the southern portion of the map is marked by the distinct basaltic fields of Lava and the rugged expanse of The Devils Garden.
