Deep in the least populated section of Oregon, this graticule probably holds no settlement with a population of more than a few dozen. The terrain varies from desert canyons to the marshes around Malheur Lake. Aside from three lonely highways, US-395, US-26, and Oregon State Highway 78, there are not many paved roads in the area.
