1999 Map of Crane Prairie

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Malheur National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape of the Blue Mountains, where the headwaters of the North Fork Malheur River emerge from steep canyons and high ridges. By the late twentieth century, the area had been developed into a recreational corridor, evidenced by the presence of Elk Creek Campground, North Fork Malheur Campground, and Little Crane Campground. The map reveals a complex hydraulic network of named springs, including Hankins Spring, Winegar Spring, and Roaring Spring, which sustain the various forks and creeks that carve through the timbered terrain. Notable topographic landmarks such as Summit Rock and Sheep Mountain define the northern horizons, while the southern reaches descend toward Crane Prairie. Small-scale industrial activity is represented by a Quarry and a Gravel Pit, providing a grounded record of local resource management within the forest boundaries during this era.
