About this map

Stoney Corral serves as the central landmark for this high-desert landscape in Malheur County, situated along the base of Stoney Corral Ridge. The map illustrates an arid territory where water management is the primary human footprint, marked by a systematic network of catchments and drainage features. These include the Deep Draw Reservoir to the north and the cluster of Wildhorse Reservoir and Lower Wildhorse Reservoir near the central drainage of Toppin Cr.

Strategic high points like Black Butte and Lookout Butte dominate the southern portion of the quadrangle, overlooking isolated water sources like Napoleon Reservoir and Lookout Butte Reservoir. The sparse road network, including Tent Creek Rd and Sharon Creek Reservoir Rd, reveals the remote nature of this ranching or grazing land, where survival and movement are dictated by the presence of these scattered reservoirs and ephemeral creeks.
