About this map

Aneroid Lake and the surrounding high-elevation peaks of the Wallowa National Forest define this landscape at the headwaters of several significant river systems. The map traces the rugged divide between the W Fork Wallowa River and the eastern drainages of the McCully Creek. Historic transit is represented by the Tenderfoot Wagon Road, which winds through the southeast, passing below Mt Nebo toward the Imnaha Divide.

Glacial geography is prominent, from the high Lakes Basin and Ice Lake in the west to the cluster of Bonny Lakes below Aneroid Mtn. This terrain provided the essential summer range and water sources for the region's early ranching and forestry economy, as seen in named grazing areas like Six Mile Meadow and Boner Flat. Significant summits such as Petes Point and Bonneville Mtn anchor the ridges above Tenderfoot Pass.
