1955 Map of Canyon City

About this map

The John Day River and its multiple forks define the rugged landscape of Central Oregon, carving through high plateaus and ancient geological formations. This mid-century survey captures the region's vast network of federal lands, including the Umatilla National Forest, Malheur National Forest, and Ochocco National Forest. The geography is anchored by significant mountain ranges like the Strawberry Mountains and Blue Mountains, where high peaks like Dixie Butte and Lookout Mountain watch over a territory of timber and livestock ranching.
