1968 Map of Echo SW

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Butter Creek winds through the southern portion of this landscape, marking a significant drainage point within the high desert environment of Eastern Oregon. The terrain is defined by a complex system of dry washes and deep incisions, including the prominent Alkali Canyon and Slusher Canyon. The convergence of Spikes Gulch and other drainages like Matlock Canyon and Cunningham Canyon illustrates the erosional patterns of the region during the late 1960s. Surveyors noted the Base Line passing through the southern sections, a critical reference point for the Public Land Survey System that governs local property boundaries. The presence of a Jeep Trail provides insight into the limited transportation network used for ranching and land management in this rural Umatilla and Morrow County border area.
