About this map

Crooked River National Grassland dominates the western edge of this landscape, where the high desert terrain transitions into a complex system of canyons and flats. The southern portion of the map is defined by the Baldwin Hills and the agricultural activity surrounding Ashwood Rd and SE Hay Creek Rd, including the Hay Creek Cem.

Water is a vital and localized resource in this arid environment, evidenced by named features like Lyle Reservoir and a series of high-elevation water sources such as Cottonwood Springs, Hatfield Spring, and Lake Camp Springs. The topography is marked by distinctive formations like Eagle Point and Indian Head Rock, while deep incisions such as Devils Canyon and Old Maids Canyon reveal the erosive history of the drainage basins feeding into Wilson Cr and Hay Cr.
