2004 Map of Homestead

USGS Topo · Published 2007

About this map

Snake River canyon walls dominate this 2004 survey, where the border between Oregon and Idaho is defined by the water's course. The small settlement of Homestead and the nearby Irondyke Mine reflect the area's extraction history along the western bank. A landscape of steep drainages, including Irondyke Creek and Hells Canyon Creek, flows into the central Reservoir. This region, managed largely within the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest and Payette National Forest, shows a transition from mining activity to recreation. The presence of a Landing Strip and Boat Ramp near the river indicates the modern accessibility of these canyons. Numerous Prospects and a Mine Shaft remain scattered across the slopes of Limepoint Ridge, marking the persistent search for mineral wealth in the challenging terrain of Hells Canyon.
