1973 Map of Buchanan

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Malheur National Forest lands dominate the northern reaches of this high-desert landscape, where scattered homesteads and water improvements define the human footprint. The settlement of Buchanan sits in the southeast, while the Mary Oard Homestead and Poujade Ranch represent the enduring ranching legacy of Harney County. The topography is marked by a sophisticated system of water management in a semi-arid climate, featuring numerous engineered catchments such as Corcoran Res, Lower Jones Canyon Res, and Cow Creek Road Reservoir.
