1967 Map of Horse Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Horse Ridge dominates this Central Oregon landscape, standing as a prominent geological divide between the high desert plateaus. This 1967 survey, updated with revisions from 1979, illustrates a region defined by its arid geography and specific water management features like Dyer Well and Dry Well. To the north, the Badlands present a stark, fragmented terrain, while the southern portion of the map transitions into the Millican Valley. Evidence of land use and resource extraction is visible through several marked Borrow Pits, which likely supported road construction in this sparsely populated area. The presence of the Deschutes National Forest boundary and the Jeep Trail suggests a landscape navigated primarily for transit, timber management, or recreation, centered around the high point at Horse Ridge Summit. Localized depressions such as Golden Basin and the broad expanse of Stookey Flat further detail the varied topography of this volcanic region.
