2017 Map of Little Lookout Mountain

About this map

Little Lookout Mountain and Sheep Mtn anchor this high-elevation landscape in eastern Oregon, where the terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainages and named canyons. The map reveals the complex seasonal hydrology of the region, anchored by vital water sources like Buckley Spring, McCullough Spring, and Upper Nodine Spring. These springs provided essential support for livestock and early travel through the high country. The local geography is marked by distinctive topographical features such as Kuykendahl Gulch, Box Canyon, and the sprawling reaches of Upper Timber Canyon and Lower Timber Canyon. Transportation is limited to rugged corridors like Powder River Rd and Manning Creek Rd, tracing the paths through Upper Peavine Flat and along the various forks of the Daly and Durkee creek systems.
