About this map

The Powder River cuts a deep canyon through the high desert terrain of eastern Oregon, carving its way toward the Lower Powder River Valley near the border of Union and Baker counties. In the late 1960s, this landscape was defined by its water management systems, including several Diversion Dams and an intricate network of irrigation channels such as Emele Ditch, Basche Ditch, and Erwin Ditch. These features illustrate the essential nature of water rights in this arid ranching and farming country.
