2023 Map of Venator Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Jake Hughes Reservoir and a network of named waterholes define this high-desert landscape along the boundary of Harney and Malheur Counties. The terrain is shaped by distinct drainage patterns, where Deadman Creek and Robinson Creek cut through the arid topography toward open areas like Big Flat. Ranching history is evident in the infrastructure for water management and livestock movement, such as the China Hill Stock Trail and numerous localized water sources including Newts Waterhole and Dipping Vat Spring. Elevated landmarks like Hat Butte provide vantage points over the surrounding draws and canyons. This modern survey documents a sparsely populated region where survival and industry remain closely tied to the seasonal availability of water at sites like Lakebed Waterhole.
