About this map

Lookout Mountain dominates the center of this high-elevation landscape in the Blue Mountains region of northeastern Oregon. The area is characterized by a series of high meadows and clearings used for seasonal livestock operations and forest management, including Fry Meadow, Brock Meadows, and Jarboe Meadow. Small-scale human imprints are scattered across the terrain, from the Jaus Saud Corral in the northwest to the Pearson Cabin at Kettleson Meadow.

Drainage systems define the local geography, with Jarboe Creek and Sheep Creek flowing north toward the Grande Ronde River, which cuts through the southeastern corner of the sheet. For those interested in forest history, the Lookout Tower atop the primary peak and the Sweikert Ranch near Swikert Meadow represent the intersection of federal land management and private ranching interests in this isolated corner of Union County.
