About this map

The Union Pacific railroad corridor anchors the city of Baker in this late-1960s survey, illustrating a well-developed municipal center serving the agricultural Baker Valley. The town's educational and civic infrastructure is prominently detailed, featuring Baker College, Stack Jr H S, and several neighborhood schools like Brooklyn Sch and North Baker Sch. To the south, the landscape rises toward Mt Hope Cemetery and Coyote Peak, while the northern flats are defined by a complex network of irrigation and drainage including Baldock Slough and Estes Slough. Historical transit roots are visible along Old Settlers Road and the Oregon Trail Monument, marking the intersection of pioneer history and modern development. Industry and recreation are represented by the Baker Municipal Airport, several Gravel Pits, and the Municipal Golf Course, showing the city's role as a regional hub.
