1993 Map of Cove

About this map

Agricultural life in the Grande Ronde Valley is meticulously detailed here, centered on the community of Cove at the foot of the Whitman National Forest. The map illustrates the transition from the flat, irrigated valley floor to the steep eastern timberlands. Local infrastructure is well-defined, showing a network of rural lanes like Lantz Lane and Duncan Lane that connect outlying homesteads and the small settlements of Eckesley and Shanghai. Educational and social hubs of the late 20th century are marked by the High Sch and the Grange Hall.
