1967 Map of Kane Spring Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Kane Springs and its surrounding gulches characterize this arid landscape in eastern Oregon during the late 1960s. The map reveals a sophisticated network of water management for livestock or irrigation, including the Little Sandy Reservoir and Kane Spring Reservoir, alongside more localized improvements like the Broken Rim Check Dam. These features, documented by the Usgs, suggest a working rangeland where name-places often denote vital water sources such as Whiskey Spring No 2 and Sponge Spring. A solitary Jeep Trail provides the primary means of transport through the terrain, connecting Sand Hollow with the depths of Negro Rock Canyon. This survey captures the specialized infrastructure of Malheur County, where the placement of springs and dams dictated the utility of the high desert plateau.
