About this map

Whitman National Forest land dominates this section of the Blue Mountains, where the high-elevation terrain is defined by the headwaters of several critical drainages. The Grande Ronde River flows through the northeastern corner, paralleled by the historical path of Railroad Canyon, a significant corridor for both timber and transportation. To the south, the massive bulk of Coleman Ridge rises as a major topographical landmark, separating the Spring Cr and Beaver Cr watersheds. Local water sources like Badger Spring and numerous tributaries such as Bear Cr and Jordan Cr illustrate the complex hydrography of this forested landscape. Transportation is limited to a network of forest roads and State Hwy 244, reflecting the area's primary role as a managed timber and watershed resource rather than a center of dense human settlement.
