2011 Map of Trout Creek

About this map

Silvies Valley serves as the central geographic focus of this eastern Oregon landscape, where the meandering Silvies River and its numerous tributaries create a hub for cattle ranching. The map documents several established landholdings, including Silvies Valley Ranch, Craddock Ranch, and Purdy Ranch, which are situated along the valley floor. Water management is evident through features like the West Side Ditch and the presence of numerous named water sources such as Buffalo Lake, Ranger Spring, and Curry Spring. To the north and west, the terrain transitions into more defined formations like Badger Canyon and Loco Canyon. The eastern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the headwaters of Trout Creek and its branches, including North Fork Trout Creek and Middle Fork Trout Creek.
