About this map

Bear Valley and the Aldrich Mountains define this high-altitude landscape in Grant County, where the headwaters of the Silvies River wind through open flats and timbered slopes. This 2024 survey captures a terrain dominated by the Malheur National Forest and a series of high-desert drainages. The hydrology of the area is particularly detailed, showing the convergence of Scotty Creek, Eddington Creek, and Damon Creek.

A notable inclusion for modern navigation and historical land use is the Emergency Airstrip located north of Jimmy Creek, highlighting the area's isolation and the necessity for aerial access. The map also records several family-named landmarks and water sources such as Randall Spring and Ferris Spring, which are essential features for tracking early ranching footprints and water rights in this part of Oregon.
