About this map

Jordan Meadow Flat sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape along the border of Oregon and Nevada. Published in 2015, the map captures a remote section of Malheur Co, Oregon, and Humboldt County, Nevada, where the drainage systems of Washburn Cr and McDermott Cr shape the terrain. The presence of Jordan Meadow Rd provides the primary transit route through this open range, connecting the southern flats to the more elevated Sentinel Hills and the prominent Long Ridge.

The hydrography of the region is defined by seasonal watercourses like Little Washburn Cr and Jordan Meadow Cr, which converge near the state line. This area is characterized by traditional land divisions and public land surveys, shown here as it existed in the early 21st century. The map offers a clear view of the geographic relationship between the intermittent creeks and the surrounding ridges, such as Little Wildcat Cr and Wildcat Cr.
