2023 Map of Buck Spring

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The high plateau and timbered ridges of the Ochoco National Forest define this landscape in Harney County, where water management is central to the area's history. A sequence of small-scale impoundments including Mill Reservoir, Sawmill-Number One Reservoir, and Sawmill Number Two Reservoir suggest the historical importance of local timber operations and livestock watering. The terrain shifts from the open expanse of Gravelly Flat and the elevated Chapin Table to the deep drainages of Silver Creek and Delintment Creek. Springs are numerous across the quadrangle, with named sources like Hollenbeck Spring and Pick Spring feeding the seasonal creeks that carve through the volcanic landscape. These features, along with Dry Dam Reservoir, highlight the persistence of land-use patterns in this isolated corner of eastern Oregon.
