1968 Map of Mc Coy Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Steens Mountain and Mc Coy Ridge dominate this high-desert landscape in Harney County, where water is the primary driver of human presence. Named cabins and homesteads, including Catherson Cabin, Patterson Cabin, and the Glen Brown Place, are scattered along the canyons and springs, indicating a history of seasonal ranching and rugged land use. The drainage network is complex, defined by the headwaters of Krumbo Creek, Big Bridge Creek, and Big Fir Creek. Man-made water management is evident through numerous reservoirs such as Antelope Reservoir, Witzel Reservoir, and Sagehen Reservoir. A network of jeep trails and fences crisscrosses the terrain, marking the boundaries of range land and providing access to remote springs and high-elevation basins.
