2017 Map of Tims Peak

About this map

Tims Peak stands as the dominant landmark in this high-desert reach of Malheur County, where the 21st-century landscape is defined by an intricate network of water management features. The area's ranching heritage is evidenced by the numerous reservoirs and springs distributed across the terrain, including Ha-ng Isa Reservoir, Ray Reservoir, and the Gold Cr Reservoir Number One. The drainage patterns of Hu-tsi-Tehaga Cr and Te-che-cha-paa-nena Cr underscore the complex topography. While the region is largely open range, industrial markers like Sunnyslope Pit and agricultural infrastructure such as the Shearing Plant Reservoir indicate localized economic activity. This survey captures a moment when traditional land uses, represented by Wildcat Waterhole and various family-named features like Rufino Gulch, persist alongside modern water conservation efforts.
