About this map

Findley Buttes and Harsin Butte dominate this section of Wallowa County, marking a transition between the open plateau and the drainage systems feeding the Imnaha River. The landscape is defined by its watercourses, including the north-flowing Camp Cr and Trail Cr, which carve through the high country. In the eastern portion of the map, the boundary of the Wallowa National Forest encompasses steep terrain like Imnaha Gulch and Stickney Gulch.

Transportation through this high-altitude cattle country relies on historic routes like Zumwalt Rd and the winding Old Imnaha Rd. These roads trace the contours of the land, providing access to the remote ridges and valleys. Notable landmarks like Méexsem Héepey Butte reflect the cultural and geographic heritage of the region, while the presence of Long Ridge illustrates the typical volcanic-plateau topography of northeastern Oregon.
