2017 Map of Lime

About this map

The Burnt River carves a path through this section of Baker County, dictating the development of transport and settlement in the high desert terrain. The small community of Lime sits along the river's bend, where Oregon Trail Blvd and Langley RD converge near the Lime Dixie Cem. This area, historically significant for its role along the pioneer route, shows a landscape defined by industrial and agricultural necessities, with numerous water sources like Walnut Spring and Smith Spring scattered across the uplands. To the northwest, Weatherby marks another point of settlement near Arrastra Gulch, tucked beneath the slopes of Weatherby Mtn. The map reveals a complex network of canyons and ridges, including Caribou Bar and Morgan Mtn, where seasonal creeks like Jordan Cr and Powell Cr have shaped the land, supporting a series of remote springs and access roads such as Valentine Rd.
