2023 Map of Halfway

About this map

Pine Valley serves as the central pastoral hub of this Baker County landscape, where the settlement of Halfway is anchored by a network of local roads including Slaughterhouse Rd and Fish Lake Rd. The transition from the valley floor to the timbered heights of the Whitman National Forest is marked by water management and natural drainage patterns, notably at the Bearwallow Reservoir and the descent of Clear Creek and East Pine Creek. Genealogists and local historians will find the southern portion of the map particularly significant, as it identifies the Hill Cem and Rosenberg markers near the junction of Pine Creek Hwy. The terrain is defined by rugged local landmarks such as Mehlhorn Butte and the narrow passage of Dark Canyon, illustrating the intersection of early mountain transit routes like the Cornucopia Hwy with the established agricultural community of Pine Haven.
