2024 Map of Gooseberry

About this map

Gooseberry occupies a landscape of steep-walled canyons and upland plateaus in the high country of Eastern Oregon. This 2024 map documents a rural environment where land is divided by deep drainage systems like Gooseberry Canyon and Eightmile Canyon, which feed toward the northern boundary. Settlement patterns are defined by family-named routes such as Carlson Ln, Gabbett Rd, and Mc Elligott Rd, reflecting the area's agricultural and ranching legacy. The small community of Gooseberry remains centered near the Gooseberry Cem, while the southern portion of the map traces the Morrow Co and Gilliam Co border. Water is a defining but intermittent presence, with the East Fork Dry Creek and West Fork Dry Creek cutting through the center, eventually leading to local features like Zinter Pond.
