1990 Map of Hunter Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Ben Dire Mountain and Ben Dire Ridge anchor the landscape of this high-desert region in eastern Oregon, as documented by fieldwork completed in 1987. The terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and cattle-country water sources, including the headwaters of Bully Creek and its many tributaries like South Bully Creek and the North Fork Bully Creek. The presence of numerous named springs, such as Schoolmarm Spring, Earp Spring, and Puckett Spring, suggests a landscape managed for ranching and livestock movement through the draws and flats. Managed water storage is evident at sites like the Big Flat Reservoir, Mailbox Canyon Reservoir, and Willow Basin Reservoir, which appear situated to capture runoff from the surrounding peaks. This 1990 provisional map provides a clear record of the area's geography before later development, showing remote landmarks like Steamboat Rock and the high elevation Hunter Mountain Spring.
