About this map

Lostine serves as the focal point for this mountain landscape, where the Wallowa River and Lostine River emerge from the high country. The town's grid is oriented along Or-82 and College St, transitioning quickly into an intricate network of irrigation channels. These human-made waterways, including the Cross Country Ditch, Westside Ditch, and Poley-Allen Ditch, illustrate the complex water management required for agriculture in the valley floor.

South of the settlement, the terrain rises sharply into the Wallowa National Forest. This section is defined by significant elevations like Huckleberry Mountain and Sheep Ridge, alongside the Lostine Reservoir. For the local historian, the map details numerous named canyons and flats, such as Allen Canyon and McCoy Flats, and identifies high-altitude features like Huckleberry Spring and Womack Basin that remain vital landmarks for those navigating the transition from the valley to the timberline.
