1967 Map of Elbow Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Wenaha River and Grande Ronde River anchor this remote landscape, showing the protected intersection of the Umatilla National Forest and Wallowa-Whitman National Forest. The 1967 survey captures a terrain defined by steep canyons and prominent landmarks like Grizzly Bear Ridge and Hoodoo Ridge. The prevalence of named water sources, such as Moster Spring, Huntit Spring, and Thorn Springs, indicates the critical importance of these features for livestock and travelers in the high country before modern water management. A system of (Pack) Trails and unimproved roads navigates the Wenaha Wilderness boundary, while Squaw Falls marks a notable descent along the creek. The map also delineates the high-altitude boundary between Columbia and Wallowa Counties along Patterson Ridge.
