2023 Map of Orejana Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Orejana Rim dominates the western edge of this High Desert landscape, where the sheer drop into Orejana Canyon creates a stark physical boundary across the high plateau. In this arid reach of Harney County, the distribution of water is the primary footprint of human land use. The map documents a sophisticated network of upland water management, from the Central Reservoir Number One and Central Reservoir Number Two in the north to the South Lake Waterhole at the southern boundary. These named water points, alongside the Cyclone Reservoir and Buffalo Reservoir, indicate the area's ongoing importance for livestock and range management. The terrain is further defined by geologic landmarks like Spine Cob Butte and the deep incisions of Buckhorn Canyon, which provide essential relief in an otherwise expansive, sage-covered environment.
