1972 Map of Beaverdam Creek

About this map

Whitman National Forest dominates this landscape in Baker County, where the high-altitude terrain transitions from timbered slopes into the lower Burnt River Valley. The southern edge of the map follows the winding course of the Burnt River, providing a stark contrast to the numerous dry gulches and isolated springs found at higher elevations. This area is characterized by seasonal ranching and grazing infrastructure, evidenced by sites like Hudspeth Cow Camp and Hudspeth Corral, alongside natural features such as Beaverdam Buttes and Cottonwood Buttes.
