1990 Map of Jonesboro

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Malheur River valley defines the central corridor of this eastern Oregon landscape, where the settlement of Jonesboro and agricultural operations like the D Jones Ranch are situated near the Jonesboro Canal. This 1990 survey captures the irrigation-dependent ranching culture of the High Desert, showing the careful management of water through features like the Bristol Reservoir and the Vaughn Peach Ranch. The surrounding terrain is marked by deep cuts such as Black Canyon and Cave Canyon, while various water sources like Antelope Spring and Dipping Vat Creek indicate the vital importance of spring-fed drainage systems in this arid environment. Elevation shifts are pronounced along Stemler Ridge and the Stemler Basin, illustrating the transition from riverine flats to the uplands where numerous named gulches and springs provided the necessary resources for early livestock movement and homesteading.
