1969 Map of Dry Creek Rim

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Owyhee River carves a deep path through the high desert of Malheur County, anchored by the steep walls of the Owyhee Canyon. This 1969 field-checked survey reveals an arid landscape managed through a complex network of water infrastructure, featuring numerous named catchments such as Eiguren Reservoir, Pinto Horse Reservoir, and Fretwell Reservoir. These small reservoirs, scattered across the plateau, suggest the vital importance of seasonal water management for ranching in this corner of eastern Oregon.
