1981 Map of Van Horn Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Pueblo Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Harney County, where steep drainages like Cottonwood Creek and Stonehouse Creek carve through the massif. The map documents a sparsely populated ranching and mining region during the late 1970s, evidenced by isolated structures such as the O'Connor Homestead and Tiller Cabin. The settlement of Denio sits at the southern edge of the basin near Pueblo Valley Creek, serving as a local hub for the surrounding livestock operations and mining interests.
