About this map

Ochoco National Forest dominates the southern reaches of this central Oregon landscape, where the high desert meets the forested slopes of the Blue Mountains. The terrain is defined by a series of steep drainages and ridges, notably Juniper Ridge and the eponymous Day Basin. A small portion of the John Day Fossil Beds Nat Mon appears in the northeast corner along Cottonwood Creek, marking a region famous for its paleontological significance.
