2014 Map of Log Creek

About this map

Bully Cr and its northern forks define the high-desert drainages of this Malheur County landscape. The 2014 survey reveals an arid territory where water management is critical, evidenced by the distribution of several catchment points including Saddle Reservoir, Becker Reservoir, and the Ridge Road Reservoir. These features, alongside Log Or Basin Reservoir, support livestock and local land use in a region dominated by relief features like Stoney Gulch and Hay Canyon. Transport through this part of the Oregon interior is facilitated by historic routes such as Bonita Rd and Bully Creek Rd, which provide access to the broader township and range grid. The presence of Richter Flat and the deep incisions of Timber Canyon illustrate the sharp transitions between elevated basins and the lower creek beds that sustain the area's hydrology.
