2024 Map of Rowe Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

John Day Wild and Scenic River defines the southern reach of this Wheeler County landscape, cutting through Liberty Bottom near the mouth of numerous high-desert drainages. The terrain is characterized by a series of prominent volcanic buttes and ridges, including Kentucky Ridge and Sugarloaf Mtn, which overlook a network of canyons such as Thompson Canyon and Lambing Camp Canyon. Water is the primary driver of name and activity here, with Rowe Creek and its associated Rowe Cr Reservoir providing a vital focal point in an otherwise arid environment. Small, localized features like The Flat and Rim Rock Spring suggest the area's long history as rangeland, where isolated springs like Alkali Springs and Beckley Spring provided essential stop-over points for stock and travelers alike.
