About this map

Cottonwood Reservoir and the headwaters of Cottonwood Creek anchor this high-desert landscape on the southern edge of the Malheur National Forest. This 1990 provisional map documents a region defined by water management and resource extraction, where the Otis Valley and Beede Desert meet. Evidence of range life and industry is scattered throughout the terrain, from a Landing Strip and Corral to various prospects, a Gravel Pit, and several Borrow Pits. The map reveals a reliance on natural and engineered water sources, including Antelope Spring, Dipping Vat Spring, and the Squaw Creek Reservoir, which is supported by a series of Check Dams. This survey preserves the exact placement of these vital desert landmarks as they appeared in the late twentieth century.
