About this map

The high ridges of the Umatilla National Forest define this 1995 survey, which marks the boundary between Walla Walla and Columbia Counties. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of river forks and springs, including the South Fork Touchet River and the headwaters of the North Fork Wenaha River. Topographic landmarks such as Deadman Peak, Table Rock, and Griffin Peak serve as primary navigational anchors in this mountainous area.

Large protected areas dominate the quadrangle, notably the Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness and the Mill Creek Watershed, highlighting the region's importance for water resource management. Early infrastructure is visible through the primitive Intake Trail and the high-elevation Skyline Road. Historical human presence is noted at Indian Camp, while the natural hydrography is mapped in detail from Switchback Spring down to Deadman Creek.
