2020 Map of Capehart Lake

About this map

Yellowstone Waterhole is the central aquatic landmark in this high desert region of Harney County, providing a critical water point for local livestock and wildlife. This area is characterized by a sparse transportation network, primarily defined by the transit of Placidia Butte Rd through the southwestern portion of the map. The landscape is meticulously organized by the Public Land Survey System, with the intersections of t24s r26e, t24s r27e, t25s r26e, and t25s r27e creating a distinct grid across the open terrain. This survey illustrates the enduring patterns of land management and water resource placement essential for ranching and environmental stewardship in Eastern Oregon.
