1961 Map of Logdell

About this map

Bear Valley and the surrounding high country of the Malheur National Forest define this landscape, where the Silvies River meanders through meadows and timber. The small settlement of Logdell and the Bear Valley Guard Station serve as central points for forest management and local ranching interests during this era. High-elevation landmarks like Rail Creek Butte and Sand Mountain rise above a network of drainages including Wymer Creek and Jenkins Creek. Evidence of land use and cattle management is visible in labels for Elkhorn Cow Camp, Dipping Vat, and various meadows such as Smith Meadows and Crooked Meadows. The presence of an Airstrip and several jeep trails suggests the area's isolation and the specialized transportation required for fire suppression and resource access. Remote locations like Lost Cabin and The Potholes indicate a history of rugged habitation and specific local nomenclature.
