1967 Map of Billy Meadows

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Wallowa National Forest land defines this mid-century landscape in Wallowa County, where the high ridges of the Oregon wilderness were managed through a network of remote outposts and trails. The Billy Meadows Guard Station and a high Lookout Tower on a prominent rise overlooking Red Hill Creek served as vital hubs for forest service operations and fire watch. This 1967 survey captures the area's transition into a recreational and grazing landscape, as evidenced by the distribution of sites like Dougherty Spring Campground and the Hollow Log Cow Camp. High-altitude water sources like Yew Wood Spring and Poker Bill Spring provide life to the drainage basins of Brandy Creek and Coyote Creek. The map is heavily marked with primitive transportation routes, including the Aspen Spring Trail and numerous unnamed Jeep Trails that traverse Getchel Ridge and Long Ridge.
