About this map

O'Neil sits at the heart of this agricultural and geologic landscape, where the Crooked River transitions into the dramatic Crooked River Gorge. The map illustrates a complex irrigation network vital to this high desert region, featuring the North Unit Main Canal and the Pilot Butte N Canal, which support the farms and ranches across Lone Pine Flat. The terrain is defined by the sharp contrast between these life-giving waterways and the naturally arid drainage of the Dry River.

Evidence of the local ranching economy is visible through the presence of the River Run Ranch Airport and numerous named rural roads like Bozarth Rd and NW Butler Rd. Along the river’s course, smaller features such as McAllister Slough and tributaries like Lone Pine Cr and Japanese Cr provide fine-grained detail for those studying the natural hydrology and land use patterns of the Crooked River basin during the early 21st century.
