1982 Map of Whitehorse Ranch

About this map

Whitehorse Ranch serves as the focal point for this high-desert landscape along the border of Harney and Malheur Counties. This mid-1970s field survey documents a region defined by its ranching heritage and military history, specifically at the Camp C F Smith (Site) near Graves and a Borrow Pit. The terrain is dominated by the Oregon Canyon Mountains and the prominent Whitehorse Butte to the south, while water management is evidenced by Bog Hole Reservoir and Steens View Reservoir. The map illustrates a remote social infrastructure through the Trout Creek Sch and various 4WD tracks that follow the drainage of Whitehorse Creek and Antelope Creek. This specific topographic record captures the utilitarian nature of the Great Basin, where springs like Mud Spring and Boney Spring were essential for sustaining the cattle operations that shaped the local economy.
