1971 Map of Corporation Rim

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Corporation Rim dominates this high-desert topography of Harney County, dropping sharply into the eastern expanse of the Warner Valley. This era of the landscape is defined by the vital management of water in an arid environment, evidenced by the numerous catchment features like North Desert Waterhole, Barney Waterhole, and Knob Reservoir. The naming conventions found here—Bacon Camp and Lower Bacon Camp—suggest the seasonal patterns of land use and livestock movement across the high plateau. To the north, the terrain is cut by drainage features such as Bacon Camp Draw and Lynch Gulch, while distinctive volcanic or erosional landforms like Three Story Rim and the Black Cap summit provide clear navigational landmarks. The map also traces a network of Jeep Trails that connect these remote water sources and camps across the rimrock.
