1968 Map of Vey Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Vey Ranch serves as a central landmark in this high-desert landscape, positioned along the banks of Butter Creek. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainages including Service Canyon and Ayers Canyon, which cut through the hills of the Umatilla Co Morrow Co border. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the area shows a distinct ranching economy supported by infrastructure such as Landing Strips, a Gaging Station, and a small Dam on the creek. The presence of numerous Jeep Trails and names like Mule Hollow and Matlock Canyon suggest a working landscape of livestock and land management. Researchers can find specific utilitarian features like a Borrow Pit and several Springs that provided essential water in this arid stretch of eastern Oregon.
