About this map

Laughlin Hills dominate the terrain of this Wasco County landscape, where the high-altitude topography is defined by complex drainage systems and volcanic buttes. The map reveals a transition between managed wilderness and agricultural utility, prominently featuring the White River State Game Management Area in the northeast and large tracts of the Mt Hood Nat Forest. Significant boundary lines are detailed across the survey, including the Reservation Boundary and the Old Indian Reservation Boundary, which provide essential context for land tenure and historical territory shifts in the region.

Water sources are critical markers in this arid environment, with numerous named points such as Kelly Spring, Daniel Spring, and Coyote Spring supporting the landscape. The settlement of Dahl Pine and industrial sites like the Rainbow Quarry or various Gravel Pits illustrate the local economy of the mid-20th century. High points like Foreman Point, which includes a Lookout, served as vital observation nodes within the vast timberlands.
