2020 Map of Deadhorse Ridge

About this map

Wallowa National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape where the borders of Oregon and Idaho meet at the confluence of several major waterways. The eastern boundary is defined by the Snake Wild and Scenic River, where significant river features like Mountain Sheep Rapids and Bear Creek Rapids reveal the power of the corridor. Along the river's edge, Eureka Bar sits below the steep heights of Wapshilla Ridge and Craig Mtn. Centered on the map is the prominent Deadhorse Ridge and Deadhorse Butte, which serve as a massive divide between the Eureka Creek drainage to the east and the S Fork Chesnimnus Cr to the south. The junction of the Imnaha River and the Snake River creates a complex series of gulches and draws, including Hilliker Gulch and Trough Gulch, reflecting the deeply eroded geology of this tri-county intersection.
