2017 Map of Rockhouse Reservoir

About this map

Rockhouse Reservoir serves as a focal point in this high desert landscape of Malheur County, where water management is central to the local geography. The 2017 survey details a network of vital water sources including Blevins Reservoir and Hardin Spring, which support the livestock and ranching operations characteristic of this part of southeastern Oregon. The presence of Bowden Ranch signifies the enduring agricultural legacy of the region, situated near the seasonal drainage of Dry Cr. Access to these remote reaches is provided by sparse routes such as Indian Fort Creek Rd and Dry Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the terrain. To the south, the expansive White Mule Flat illustrates the broad, open basins that define the area between Indian Fort Cr and Corbin Cr.
