1992 Map of Little Summit Prairie

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

Little Summit Prairie sits as a central high-country clearing within the Ochoco National Forest, surrounded by a landscape defined by volcanic landforms and managed water resources. This 1992 revision, based on surveys from the early 1990s and aerial photography, reveals a complex network of springs and man-made impoundments essential for high-desert ranching and forest management. Features like Ruby Reservoir, Hook Reservoir, and Morgan Reservoir are strategically placed to capture seasonal runoff, while named springs such as Wilson Spring and Hewed Log Spring indicate the critical importance of reliable water points in this arid terrain. The map's topography is dominated by prominent volcanic features, including Paulina Butte and Roba Butte, which provide vertical contrast to the sprawling Timothy Meadow and Round Meadow. This area in Crook and Wheeler counties illustrates the transition from open grazing land to the forested ridges of Minifie Ridge.
