1996 Map of Dollar Basin

About this map

Malheur National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Grant and Harney counties. The terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and springs that feed the upper reaches of the Malheur River, which winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle. Distinctive features like the wide Dollar Basin and the expansive Miller Flat illustrate the high plateau geography of the Blue Mountains, where water management is critical as evidenced by numerous Stock Ponds and named water sources like Mike Acton Spring and Tureman Spring.
