2014 Map of Danner

About this map

Jean Baptiste Charbonneau Grave marks a significant historical landmark near the small settlement of Danner, where the high desert landscape of Malheur County meets the winding course of Jordan Creek. This remote portion of eastern Oregon is defined by its complex water management system, featuring the S Antelope Canal and N Antelope Canal that feed into the large Antelope Reservoir. The terrain transitions from the broad Antelope Flat and Rock Creek Flat to the deep incision of Jordan Creek Canyon, revealing the area's volcanic geology through features like Hard-Up Point. Local transportation and ranching infrastructure are evident in the presence of the Skinner Ranch Airport and a network of arterial desert roads, including the ION Hwy and Old ION Hwy, which trace the path of historic regional travel through this arid basin.
