About this map

The high, ridged landscape of the Mutton Mountains dominates this portion of the Warm Springs Indian Reservation, characterized by a complex network of seasonal water sources and livestock infrastructure. In the early 1960s, the terrain was defined by significant elevations such as Shaniko Butte and Mutton Mtn, with the lower reaches marked by dramatic features like Indian Head Canyon and the passage at Hellgate. The distribution of Mutton Mountain Corral, Eagle Springs Corral, and Wire Corral points to a landscape actively managed for grazing, where remote springs like Little Fawn Spring and Charley Corral Spring provided essential water. Navigation across these steep slopes relied on a system of Jeep Trails connecting the various canyons and creeks, including Skookum Creek and Eagle Creek, reflecting a period of traditional land use and controlled access within the reservation boundaries.
