About this map

Ochoco National Forest dominates this Central Oregon landscape, where the Ochoco Mountains and high-elevation summits provide the defining structure. The terrain is marked by significant peaks such as Stephenson Mountain and Tracy Mtn, while the southern portion of the quadrangle is bisected by the high-elevation Ochoco Pass along US Hwy 26. A network of Forest Service roads, including the Old Burma Rd and Natl Forest Develop Road 1210 Rd, navigates a complex system of drainage basins and gulches.

Water sources are vital markers in this upland environment, with sites like Stephenson Lake, Bear Spring, and Grant Spring providing focal points for local history and land use. The convergence of Jefferson, Crook, and Wheeler county boundaries occurs within these woods, highlighting the remote nature of these summits. This survey documents the mid-2010s state of these timberlands, showing the persistent geographic landmarks used by generations of foresters and hunters.
