About this map

Malheur National Forest encompasses the high-elevation terrain of this Grant County region, where a dense network of springs and creeks feeds the upper tributaries of the East Fork Beech Creek. The landscape is defined by its numerous meadows, such as Clark Meadow and Keeney Meadows, which appear as breaks in the forested slopes between prominent summits like Jonas Mtn and Lake Butte.

A distinct pattern of natural water sources is mapped across the territory, including Huckleberry Spring, Deadman Spring, and Porcupine Spring. These named springs suggest a history of range management and wildlife activity within the National Forest. Narrow drainages like Jugout Creek and Shabera Creek cut through the topography, while landmarks such as Big Rock and the curiously named Nipple Butte provide clear navigational markers for those tracing the backcountry of the Blue Mountains region.
