About this map

Malheur National Forest dominates the northern landscape of this Harney County high-desert terrain, where the elevation rises significantly toward the Devine Ridge. This 2017 survey reveals a network of vital water sources in an otherwise arid environment, including clustered natural outlets such as Willow Spring, Devine Ridge Spring, and Petersen Spring. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by the paths of Prater Cr and Soldier Cr, which carve through the land towards the south.

Local infrastructure is concentrated along the western and southern edges, marked by Devine Rd, Substation Rd, and Harney Rd. These routes provide access to landmarks like Sand Hill and the Armstrong Canyon Reservoir. The map illustrates the specialized landscape of Eastern Oregon, where seasonal water management and public forest boundaries shape the cattle-ranching and timber heritage of the region.
