1966 Map of Millican SE

About this map

Pine Mountain dominates the central landscape of this central Oregon survey, providing a dramatic elevation contrast to the surrounding high desert. The area is largely defined by its position within the Deschutes National Forest, where the terrain transitions from the volcanic heights of Pine Ridge to the low-lying expanse of the Kotzman Basin. Water sources are notably scarce in this arid environment, evidenced by the presence of the Dry River and isolated points like Whitaker Holes and a single mapped Well. Evidence of modern infrastructure is visible at the Radio Facility Antelope perched on a high ridge, while a Borrow Pit in the north indicates localized resource extraction. The map also meticulously documents land management through a series of red dashed fence lines that segment the open range.
