Drewsey serves as the focal point of this high-desert landscape in Harney County, situated where the Malheur River cuts through the broad terrain of Drewsey Valley. The map reveals a complex water management system essential for ranching and agriculture in this arid environment, evidenced by the Drewsey Reclamation Company Ditch, Sitz Ditch, and Miller Ditch. These man-made channels divert water across Kimball Flat, illustrating the historical effort to reclaim and irrigate the flats surrounding the river.
