About this map

Umatilla National Forest defines the character of this high-elevation landscape, where numerous forks and ridges converge along the border of Walla Walla and Columbia Counties. The map highlights a complex drainage system including the Griffin Fork, Burnt Fork, and Wolf Fork, all feeding into larger regional waterways. Prominent summits such as Deadman Peak, Griffin Peak, and Table Rock provide significant orientation points for the area.

Land management and recreation are central to the terrain, evidenced by the extensive Mill Creek Watershed and a network of backcountry routes like the Intake/Deadman Peak Trail and the Deep Saddle Trail. Traces of local naming conventions appear in features like Robinette Mtn and Jasper Mtn, while the winding Skyline Road follows the higher elevations along the eastern boundary. This survey offers a detailed look at the hydraulic and topographic layout of the Blue Mountains region before the most recent decade of forest management changes.
