About this map

Dixie Meadows sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape within the Malheur National Forest in Grant County. The area is defined by a dense network of drainages and seasonal springs that feed into larger watercourses like Dixie Cr and Bear Cr. Notable landmarks such as Dixie Butte and the distinctive Ragged Rocks provide prominent navigational points for those exploring the backcountry.

The map reveals a history of land use through its evocative toponyms, including Slaughterhouse Gulch and Honeymoon Canyon. Movement through this mountainous terrain is facilitated by a combination of forest routes like Natl Forest Develop Road 791 Rd and more established paths such as Co Hwy 58. The transition between the high meadows and the steep descents of Riverside Gulch and Long Tom Gulch illustrates the complex topography typical of the Blue Mountains region.
