About this map

The settlement of Haines serves as the focal point of this Baker Valley survey, situated along the La Grande-Baker Hwy and the historic rail corridor. This agricultural landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation features, including the Blume Zilkey Ditch, Mansfield Ditch, and Ellis Ditch, which redirect water from the Powder River and Rock Cr to support local ranching. The small community of Hutchinson is located to the north, while the presence of Haines Cem and Rock Creek Cem provides valuable geographic markers for genealogical research.

Terrain variations are prominent to the east and west, with Coyote Hills and Hutchinson Hill rising above the valley floor. Notable local landmarks such as Radium Hot Springs and the Jensens Strip Airport illustrate the intersection of natural resources and 20th-century aviation infrastructure. The map also records numerous sloughs and creeks, such as Favorite Slough and Warm Springs Cr, tracing the natural drainage patterns that have shaped land use in this part of Oregon.
