About this map

Alvord Ranch and its associated Landing Strip represent the primary human imprint on this arid landscape in the early 1980s. Located at the foot of the mountains where Alvord Creek emerges from the heights, the ranch serves as a focal point for activity in an otherwise austere environment. The geography is dominated by the Allvord Desert and several large, flat Depressions that define the basin floor. A critical network of water sources is meticulously documented, including Alvord Well No 1, Alvord Well No 2, and various Flowing Wells. These water points, along with multiple Corrals, illustrate the vital infrastructure required for livestock management in this high-desert region of Harney County.
