About this map

Dufur and the neighboring agricultural settlements of Boyd and Nansene anchor this 2014 survey of the high plateau country in Wasco County. The landscape is defined by a series of deep drainage cuts, most notably along Fifteenmile Cr and its tributaries like Starveout Cr and Dry Cr. These waterways have carved distinct terrain features such as Shotgun Hollow and Easton Canyon, which dictate the winding paths of the local road network.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cem north of Dufur, a significant landmark for tracing early families in the region. The map also documents the transition from state highways like Us-197 to rural market routes, including Adkisson Market Rd and Old Tygh Market Rd, which historically linked these isolated farming communities to regional trade centers.
