1992 Map of Sage Hen Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The southeastern reaches of the Ochoco National Forest define this high-desert landscape in central Oregon, where water management is the primary human imprint on the land. The terrain is characterized by prominent uplands like Sundown Ridge and Elliott Ridge, which drop into deep drainages such as Pine Spring Canyon and Gove Canyon. Cattle ranching and land management are evident through a network of remote water sources, including Box Spring Reservoir, Military Reservoir, and Powerline Waterhole. The presence of the Old Elliott Well suggests a history of early livestock watering in these arid foothills. To the south, the terrain levels out near Sage Hen Hill and the Sage Hen Hill Road, punctuated by isolated volcanic features like Blackie Butte. This detailed survey from the early 1990s serves as a clear record of the intersection between public forest land and the infrastructure required for high-country grazing.
