1990 Map of Whistler Point

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Mill Creek Wilderness and the high ridges of the Ochogo Mountains dominate this high-desert terrain near the border of Wheeler and Crook counties. This 1990 provisional edition documents a landscape defined by its vital water sources and early industry, including a Mine Shaft and a Quarry located near the headwaters of several drainages. Significant landmarks like Whistler Point and Whistler Spring provide orientation in the northern reaches, while the southern portion of the sheet features the Koch Reservoir and the distinct volcanic profile of Koch Butte. The map reveals a network of canyons and creeks, such as Marks Creek, Hamilton Creek, and Ochoco Creek, which carved the rugged topography. Named features like Grant Meadows and Spears Meadow suggest the area's history as grazing or gathering grounds within the Ochogo National Forest, while family names attached to landmarks like O'Neil Butte and Coyle Butte offer clues to the early residency and land use in this part of Oregon.
