About this map

Wooten State Fish Hatchery sits along the Tucannon River in this part of Washington, where the landscape transitions from high ridges to deep canyons within the Umatilla National Forest. The 2013 survey illustrates a high-elevation environment defined by steep drainages like Big Four Canyon and School Canyon, punctuated by peaks such as Goat Mtn and Maloney Mtn. The river valley acts as the primary corridor for human activity, hosting a series of recreational and conservation water bodies including Rainbow Lake, Deer Lake, and Curl Lake.

Remote ridges like Hopkins Ridge and Starvout Ridge are accessed by an intricate network of forest roads such as Nat For Dev Rd 080 and Nat For Dev Rd 012. These routes were critical for managing the timber and water resources of the Blue Mountains region. For researchers, the map provides precise data on landmarks like Jumpoff Joe and the winding course of Cummings Cr as they appeared in the early 21st century.
