1968 Map of Swaggart Buttes

About this map

Swaggart Buttes rises as a prominent landmark in this section of Morrow County, defining a landscape carved by an intricate network of ephemeral drainages. The Union Pacific railroad corridor follows the path of Willow Creek in the southwestern corner, marking the primary transportation artery for the region during the late 1960s. Near the western edge, the small settlement of Rieper sits at the head of a canyon system, while agricultural infrastructure like Storage Bins and a Radio Tower indicate the land's utility for ranching and communication. The map reveals the stark topography of the Oregon high country, where named draws such as Blackhorse Canyon, Sourdough Canyon, and Sand Hollow converge to shape the rugged geography between the buttes and the rail line.
