1996 Map of Dixie Meadows

About this map

Dixie Meadows Mine and a dense cluster of hard-rock prospects define the industrial character of this portion of the Malheur National Forest during the late twentieth century. Located within the Blue Mountains, the landscape is heavily dissected by drainages such as Dixie Creek and Lick Creek, which historically served as corridors for mineral exploration. The presence of named sites like the Copperopolis Mine, Smuggler Mine, and Keystone Mine indicates a legacy of prospecting concentrated along the high ridges of Cougar and Ridge. Beyond the mines, the terrain is marked by remote landmarks like Ragged Rock and the Dixie Lookout Butte, which provided vantage points over the deep canyons of Honeymoon Canyon and Buck Gulch. This survey captures the region as it transitioned into a modern recreational forest while retaining the physical scars and named legacy of its mining era.
