1966 Map of Jim White Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Jim White Ridge and Boulder Ridge dominate this high-elevation landscape within the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, where the complex drainage systems of the Wallowa Mountains are clearly defined. In the 1960s, these remote reaches of the Eagle Cap Wilderness were accessible primarily via an extensive network of footpaths, including the Washboard Trail and various unnamed pack trails. The Minam River carves a central path through the terrain, joined by tributaries such as Whoopee Creek and Garwood Creek. A notable man-made feature is the Landing Strip located in the northwest corner near Horseheaven Creek, a vital remote access point in the roadless backcountry. The map also documents high-country basins such as Lake Basin, Blowout Basin, and Corral Basin, which serve as natural landmarks for backcountry navigation and water sources like Mud Spring.
