1963 Map of Big Meadows

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Umatilla National Forest defines the rugged geography of this 1963 survey, where the North Fork Walla Walla River carves deep into the terrain. A notable bend known as The Horseshoe and landmarks like Blalock Mountain anchor the southern reach of the quadrangle. Early 1960s land use is visible through the presence of a Mine and Mill along Mill Creek in the north, indicating small-scale resource extraction near the Walla Walla Co Umatilla Co line. The map highlights a network of remote access routes, including the Intake (Pack) Trail and Government Mountain Road, which link seasonal sites like Kiwanis Camp to the wider landscape. Significant open spaces like Big Meadows and Little Meadow Canyon break up the timbered ridges, providing a clear record of the watershed and forest management practices before the 1980s revisions.
