About this map

Langell Valley and the surrounding high prairie dominate this survey, capturing a landscape defined by ranching and water management in the early 2000s. The small settlement of Haynesville sits at the valley floor near a local Cem, while the higher elevations of Goodlow Mountain are managed as part of the Fremont National Forest. The map documents an extensive network of artificial water storage and irrigation infrastructure, including the large Gerber Reservoir, Noble Reservoir, and the Miller Diversion Dam.

Strategic water features like the Gaging Station on Ben Hall Creek and various named springs, such as Wilkerson Horse Camp Spring and Stewart Spring, illustrate the importance of water rights in this arid Oregon interior. Evidence of local industry appears at the Cinder Pit, while the presence of a Spoil Bank and several levees shows the physical modification of the terrain for agricultural sustainability.
