2014 Map of Whiteline Reservoir

About this map

Antelope Valley and Swan Lake Valley define the high-desert landscape of this southern Oregon survey, where water sources are vital markers on the land. Named springs such as Janssen Spring, Cold Spring, and Brookside Spring illustrate the historic importance of reliable water for ranching and settlement. The map highlights the localized geography of the Cascades' eastern slopes, featuring prominent elevations like Twomile Ridge, Grizzly Butte, and Hogback Mtn. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of the Gabriel Cem and Hibbert Cem provides specific burial sites linked to the area's early families. The drainage patterns of Anderson Cr and Janssen Spring Cr feed into reservoirs like Whiteline Reservoir, showing the transition from natural waterways to managed irrigation systems.
