1951 Map of Desolation Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Desolation Butte serves as a prominent landmark in this mid-century survey of the Blue Mountains, situated at the juncture of the Umatilla National Forest and Whitman National Forest. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of fire lookouts and ranger outposts, including the Desolation Guard Station and the Indian Rock Lookout. The presence of several extractive sites, such as the Skinner Mine and Gutridge Mine, indicates a history of prospecting and mining activity concentrated near the high peaks and creek drainages.
