2017 Map of Upton Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Warm Springs Reservoir dominates the southeastern corner of this high-desert landscape in Harney County, where the Malheur River cuts through the basin. This arid region is characterized by an extensive system of isolated springs and livestock reservoirs, such as Buskirk Spring, Riley Spring, and Split Tree Reservoir, which supported the ranching economy of the early 21st century. The terrain rises sharply at Upton Mountain and Riley Butte, with notable natural landmarks including Cat Rock and the wide plateau of Carey Tables. Transportation through these high ridges is facilitated by Upton Pass and the long stretch of Warm Springs Rd, while smaller drainages like Little Stinkingwater Cr and Cottonwood Cr map the complex hydrology that defines life in the Oregon interior.
