1967 Map of Brannan Gulch

About this map

Whitman National Forest dominates this Baker County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of gulches and creeks feeding toward the Burnt River in the south. The 1960s survey records a high-elevation environment marked by prominent peaks such as Bald Mtn and Little Bald Mtn. The area's extraction history is visible through numerous prospects and mines scattered across the slopes, including the named Elliot Mine located near Brannan Gulch. A complex system of drainage includes Black Mountain Creek, Pine Creek, and Cornet Creek, illustrating the watershed patterns of the Blue Mountains region. Navigability during this era was limited to an intricate web of a Jeep Trail and a Trail network, reflecting the remote nature of the forest interior and the difficulty of accessing these mining and grazing lands.
