2023 Map of Grassy Ridge Well

About this map

Grassy Ridge rises above the drainage of Wildcat Creek in this remote section of Malheur County. The landscape is defined by the high, undulating terrain of the high desert, where watercourses like Wildcat Creek have carved deep into the plateau. The survey area is almost entirely undeveloped, with only N Fork Ryegrass Creek Rd providing access through the northeastern corner near Bone Canyon. This map documents the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid across townships t32s r37e, t32s r38e, t33s r37e, and t33s r38e, providing a precise record of section lines in a region where few permanent human markers exist. It is a portrait of a landscape preserved in its natural state, showing the intricate relationship between elevation and seasonal drainage.
