About this map

Malheur National Forest dominates this landscape, characterized by high-elevation terrain and a complex network of seasonal drainages and named springs. Distinctive summits like Cougar Rock, Twin Buttes, and Eagle Rock provide significant vertical relief, while Coxie Meadow offers a rare break in the timbered slopes. The drainage patterns are defined by numerous forks and creeks, including Cottonwood Creek and East Fork Beech Creek.

Modern access is facilitated by an extensive system of forest development roads, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 36 Rd and Natl Forest Develop Road 3640 Rd, which snake through the townships of T11S and T12S. Small water sources like Modesty Spring, Voight Spring, and Cold Spring are scattered across the quadrangle, serving as critical landmarks for forestry and backcountry navigation in this part of Grant County.
