2017 Map of Eagle Rock

About this map

Eagle Rock stands as a prominent landmark overlooking the high desert terrain of Central Oregon in this modern topographic study. The landscape is defined by the expansive Prineville Reservoir and the winding course of the Crooked River, which carved the canyons and fed the local water systems. Settlement patterns are concentrated south of the Ochoco National Forest boundary, where a network of rural roads such as Prairie Schooner and SE Juniper Canyon Rd serve the residential development near the reservoir's north shore. The contrast between the plateau of Combs Flat and the intricate drainage systems of Antelope Cr and Owl Cr illustrates the complex topography that has historically shaped ranching and recreation in Crook County. For the local historian, the map preserves contemporary nomenclature for land features like Big Bend Island and the humorously named Gravy Gulch.
