1967 Map of Frenchglen

About this map

Frenchglen sits at the base of P Hill, serving as a gateway to the high desert terrain of Harney County. This 1960s mapping record highlights the vital water management systems of the era, including the Warm Springs Canal and various upland catchments like Griffith Spring Reservoir and Kundert Reservoir. The eastern edge of the map is dominated by the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, where the Donner und Blitzen River flows through a landscape structured by ranching and conservation history. Evidence of early settlement and land use is found at the P Ranch and Brenton Cabin, while the rugged Jackass Mountains rise to the west. The presence of a landing strip near the settlement and the remote Steens Mountain Loop Road reflect the specialized transportation needs of this high-altitude basin.
