About this map

Flat Top Mountain serves as the central topographic focal point of this Malheur County landscape, where high-desert drainage patterns define the territory. The map reveals a network of seasonal watercourses including Drought Cr, Bone Cr, and Wildcat Cr, which carve through the terrain and converge toward Crooked Cr in the southeastern quadrant. These drainages, along with features like Bone Canyon, illustrate the erosional history of this volcanic plateau.

Critical water sources for local ranching and wildlife are documented at Crooked Creek Spring and Pothole Springs. Human presence is marked by a sparse network of service roads, notably Wildcat Creek Rd, Tudor Rd, and the aptly named Flattop route. The survey precisely delineates the complex Public Land Survey System boundaries, including the rare t33 1/2s r39e township designation, reflecting the intricate cadastral history of southeastern Oregon.
