1951 Map of Moores Hollow

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Snake River serves as the prominent boundary between Oregon and Idaho in this 1951 survey, winding past Westlake Island and McRea Island. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the irrigated plains of West Weiser Flat to the dissected uplands of Moores Hollow. Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the Owyhee Canal and the Upper Ditch tracing the contours of the eastern slopes, while isolated Windmills and springs like Wickup Springs and King Spr suggest a reliance on scattered water sources for livestock and remote homesteads. The terrain is deeply etched with numerous drainage features, including Wickup Gulch, Patch Gulch, and Bridge Gulch, highlighting the complex topography that early settlers and ranchers navigated in Malheur County.
