1967 Map of Frenchglen

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Frenchglen sits at the dramatic intersection of the Jackass Mountains and the wetlands of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. This late-1960s survey illustrates a landscape defined by water management and conservation in high-desert Oregon. The Donner und Blitzen River winds through the eastern flats, supported by the Bridge Creek Canal and the Center Patrol Road which navigate the refuge. To the west, the steep escarpments of Steens Mountain and P Hill give way to the Catlow Valley. Remnants of earlier ranching and pioneer life appear through markers like Brenton Cabin and the P Ranch, alongside the Lookout Tower monitoring the surrounding terrain. Scattered water sources, including Kundert Reservoir and Griffith Spring Reservoir, highlight the essential infrastructure required for survival and industry in this arid environment.
