Columbia River frontage and the surrounding orchard-rich landscape define this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, which uses aerial imagery to show the land precisely as it appeared from above. The city of Hood River occupies the southern bank where the Hood River flows into the Columbia, showing the footprint of the community before decades of further development. To the south, the settlement of Odell sits within a geometric pattern of agricultural plots, revealing how the valley’s famous fruit-growing industry shaped the local geography. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this photo-based survey by the U.S. Geological Survey and Soil Conservation Service captures the texture of the timbered hillsides and the exact density of residential streets, providing an invaluable resource for researchers studying land-use changes in this part of the Pacific Northwest.
