We used the Condor Array Telescope to obtain deep imaging observationsthrough the luminance filter of the entirety of the NGC 5866 Group, including avery extended region surrounding the galaxy NGC 5907 and its stellar stream. Wefind that the stellar stream consists of a single curved structure thatstretches $220$ kpc from a brighter eastern stream to a fainter western streamthat bends to the north and then curls back toward the galaxy. This result runscontrary to a previous claim of a second loop of the stellar stream but isconsistent with another previous description of the overall morphology of thestream. We further find that: (1) an extension of the western stream appears tobifurcate near its apex, (2) there is an apparent gap of $\approx 6$ kpc in thewestern stream due east of the galaxy, (3) contrary to a previous claim, thereis no evidence of the remnant of a progenitor galaxy within the eastern stream,although (4) there are many other possible progenitor galaxies, (5) there isanother structure that, if it is at the distance of the galaxy, stretches 240kpc and contains two very large, very low-surface-brightness "patches" ofemission, one of which was noted previously and another of which was not. Wenote the number and variety of stellar streams in the vicinity of NGC 5907 andthe apparent gap in the western stream, which may be indicative of a darksubhalo or satellite in the vicinity of the galaxy.
