About this map

Mining operations and high mountain summits dominate this mid-century survey of the Blue Mountains, where the boundaries of the Umatilla National Forest and Whitman National Forest meet. The settlement of Bates serves as a local hub near the eastern edge of the map, situated along a drainage network that feeds into the South Fork John Day River. The landscape is heavily marked by a history of extraction, featuring named prospects such as the Standard Mine, Keystone Mine, and the Tiger Mine near Vinegar Hill.
