1992 Map of Dry Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The Ochoco National Forest dominates the high-elevation landscape of Harney County on this 1990s-era topographic survey. The terrain is marked by a complex system of water management, visible through numerous small-scale catchments and developed springs like Big Ridge Reservoir, Big Meadow Reservoir, and the Seeding Waterhole. These features, alongside the Whipsaw Truck Trail, illustrate the infrastructure required for land management and cattle ranching in this remote section of Oregon. The Upper Valley provides a clear view of the transition from open grazing land at Upper Valley Ranch to the steeper, forested slopes of Dry Mountain and Big Ridge. Historical markers like the Gaging Station on Wickiup Creek and the Lookout on Big Ridge provide specific data points for researchers tracing forest service history and resource monitoring at the end of the 20th century.
