1967 Map of Double Mtn

About this map

Double Mountain rises as the central landmark of this Malheur County landscape, recorded during a 1967 field check. The high desert terrain is defined by a network of drainage features like Sagebrush Gulch and Rock Canyon, which feed into an essential water management system. Numerous man-made catchments, including Yellowjacket Reservoir and Chalk Reservoir, highlight the critical role of water storage for livestock or irrigation in this arid region. The presence of Two Forks Check Dam further underscores the efforts to control erosion and runoff within Cow Hollow.
