1954 Map of Eagle Cap

About this map

Sacajawea Peak and the Matterhorn anchor the high alpine terrain of the Eagle Cap Wilderness Area in this mid-century survey of the Wallowa Mountains. The map illustrates a complex network of glacial lakes and river headwaters, where the Minam River and Eagle Creek originate. Human presence is defined by high-altitude infrastructure, including the Shelter Cabin near Hurwal Divide and several administrative and recreational outposts like Two Color Guard Sta and Boulder Park Resort.
