About this map

Umatilla National Forest encompasses this high-altitude landscape in the mid-1990s, where traditional ranching and timber heritage is etched into the terrain. The presence of the Arbuckle Corral (Site) and Yokum Cabin suggests a history of seasonal grazing and forest management, while labels like Blue Mountain Ditch indicate early efforts to manage water resources across these ridges.

The landscape is defined by its numerous meadows and springs, such as Kelly Prairie, Linger Longer Prairie, and Blake Ranch Spring. Geologic features like Coalmine Hill and Arbuckle Mountain rise above the drainage systems of Willow Creek and Potamus Creek. The network of forestry roads, including the North Fork John Day Rd, provides a clear view of the access routes used during this era of federal land stewardship in Morrow County.
