Vale District Planning Update for the Jordan Resource Area

摘要

The Whitehorse Butte grazing allotment contains 127,000 acres in southeasternOregon within the Jordan Resource Area of the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) Vale District. Topography is rugged with elevations ranging from 4,000 feet near the Whitehorse Ranch to 8,000 feet in the Trout Creek Mountains. Willow Creek and Whitehorse Creek with its major tributaries originate in the higher elevations and flow north through steep narrow canyons. The Whitehorse Butte Allotment is the subject of the report which summarizes the allotment's history and the intensive coordination efforts of BLM and other persons interested in management of natural resources.
