About this map

Wolf Mountain dominates this high-altitude landscape within the Ochoco National Forest, where the borders of Wheeler, Grant, and Crook counties converge. The terrain is defined by a sophisticated network of water management features, including the South Prong Reservoir, Kelsey Reservoir, and Squaw Creek Reservoir, alongside numerous specialized catchments like South Prong Troughs and Mud Reservoir.

Human activity in this area is characterized by seasonal or specialized sites such as Humphreys Camp and a Lookout Tower positioned for forest monitoring. The infrastructure is primarily composed of rugged access routes, including a Jeep Trail and a Pack Trail, which navigate landmarks like Princess Ridge and Honeymoon Basin. This 1970s survey, with later revisions, shows an environment shaped by timber management and livestock grazing, evidenced by features such as Corral and Tamarack Butte.
