1967 Map of Three Fingers Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Three Fingers Rock stands as the central landmark in this high-desert landscape of eastern Malheur County, Oregon, during the late 1960s. The terrain is defined by the prominent McIntyre Ridge and several notable water sources essential for cattle ranching in this arid climate, including McIntyre Reservoir and Saddle Butte Reservoir. Human activity is primarily represented by a network of jeep trails and historic ranching improvements, such as the Camp Cabin near Sage Creek and isolated springs like Buzzard Spring and Horse Trap Spring. The map documents a landscape of dramatic topography, from the depths of Painted Canyon to the heights of Round Mountain and Atkins Butte. This survey provides a record of the remote infrastructure of the Owyhee region, showing the placement of mines and the seasonal water management systems used by early 20th-century settlers and ranchers.
