1980 Map of Wagontire Mtn East

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Wagontire Mtn and Egli Ridge define this high-desert landscape in central Harney County, where water sources dictated the patterns of early settlement and ranching. The 1980 survey reveals a network of springs and reservoirs critical to the area's survival, including Egli Spring, Wilson Springs, and the vividly named Crippled Horse Reservoir. Named ranching landmarks like Whitehouse Ranch and legacy sites such as Old Jackson Place and Burnt House Place provide specific touchpoints for local family history and genealogists tracing the occupation of this arid region. The presence of a Landing Strip near the small settlement of Wagontire and scattered Prospects on the ridge indicate the varied land uses of the late 20th century. Numerous Jeep Trails lace the terrain, connecting isolated corrals and water features across the drainage basins of Rattlesnake Creek and South Creek.
