1967 Map of Vines Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Malheur River cuts a deep Canyon through the high desert of eastern Oregon in this late-1960s survey. The landscape is defined by the complex water engineering required for agriculture in this arid environment, featuring an extensive network of irrigation works including the Vale Oregon Canal, Farmers Ditch, and the J-H Canal. Several Diversion Dams along the river channel illustrate how the natural flow was managed to support the nearby West Bench and surrounding flats. Transportation is dominated by the Union Pacific railroad line, which follows the river's winding path through the valley. Local landmarks such as Vines Hill and the Bully Cr Siphon near Bully Creek provide specific points of reference for those tracing historical land use or family property in the region.
