1982 Map of No Crossing Crossing

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Big Antelope Basin and the surrounding high desert of Malheur County define this landscape, where water management is the primary marker of human activity. The 1979 field survey reveals a network of livestock infrastructure and small-scale earthen engineering, from the Twin Springs Corral in the north to the Sacramento area in the south. The nomenclature of the reservoirs — such as Doubtful Reservoir, Dubious Reservoir, Optimism Reservoir, and Desperation Reservoir — provides a vivid narrative of the challenges faced by ranchers in this arid terrain. Drainage patterns are dominated by Antelope Creek and its tributary Big Antelope Creek, which have carved significant features like the Twin Springs Gorge. Notable landmarks such as Deadman Butte and Emmets Hole serve as traditional navigational points in a region otherwise characterized by isolated corrals and remote basin floors.
