2014 Map of Cayuse

About this map

Cayuse and Mission anchor this stretch of the Umatilla River valley as it winds through northeastern Oregon. The landscape is defined by the transition from the river bottom to the high plateaus and ridges, marked by dramatic features like Doe Canyon and Kanine Ridge. Significant local transport infrastructure includes Or-11 and the Quail Field Airport, while rural life is reflected in the distribution of homes and the Homeli Cem. The intricate network of seasonal and perennial drainage, including Wildhorse Cr and Cottonwood Cr, illustrates the hydrological patterns that have historically shaped settlement in this part of Umatilla County. Rural roads such as Tubbs Ranch Rd and Crawford Hollow Rd connect these small communities to the surrounding high ground of Crawford Hollow.
