2017 Map of Pringle Flat

About this map

Ochoco National Forest dominates the northern reaches of this Crook County landscape, where the high desert terrain transitions into timbered slopes. The map details a complex network of forest and ranching roads, including SE Bear Creek Rd and Pringle Flat Rd, which navigate the drainage basins of Bear Cr and its various tributaries. Water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by several catchments such as Klootchman Cr Reservoir and Rickmans Camp Cr Reservoir Number Two. To the south, the expansive Pringle Flat opens up, punctuated by the distinct rise of Juniper Butte. This area illustrates the late-20th-century character of Oregon's interior, where remote forest service lands meet established grazing flats and essential seasonal waterways like Ant Cr and W Fork Camp Cr.
