2024 Map of Drumhill Ridge

About this map

Umatilla National Forest and Whitman National Forest meet in this highland region of the Blue Mountains, defined by a complex network of high ridges and deep canyons. The landscape is characterized by prominent elevations such as Wilbur Mtn and Green Mtn, separated by watercourses like Five Points Creek and Bear Creek. The map reveals a history of seasonal mountain life and livestock management through features like Standfield Meadow and numerous isolated water sources including Tie Camp Spring and Sacajawea Spring. Evidence of recreational and forest management access is visible in the trail networks, including the Whitman Route Trl and the Mt Emily Snowmobile Trl. This contemporary survey preserves the traditional nomenclature of the timber and ranching eras, from the descriptive Telephone Ridge to the more colorful Fiddlers Hell.
