2023 Map of Tub Mountain

About this map

Pine Ridge forms a prominent central spine across this portion of Malheur County, where a complex network of reservoirs and gulches defines the land use and water management. Modern infrastructure like Interstate 84 cuts through the eastern terrain, yet the map also traces the enduring path of the Old Oregon Trl in the southwest, anchoring the landscape in its 19th-century transit roots. Numerous small catchments, such as Love Reservoir and Bostic Lake Reservoir, are distributed across the high country to support local needs, while topographic landmarks like Tub Mtn and Tub Springs provide clear points of reference. The varied drainage systems, including Wheel Gulch and Alkali Gulch, illustrate the intricate natural watershed that dictates the placement of backcountry routes like Moores Hollow Rd.
