1963 Map of Madras East

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Agency Plains dominates the western portion of this Central Oregon landscape, characterized by a grid of named agricultural routes including Gumwood Lane and Cherry Lane. The high desert terrain is punctuated by significant water infrastructure like Cotter Pond and the Mud Springs Creek drainage, vital for the local ranching and farming economy. In the southwest, the growing community of Madras is anchored by the Madras Jr High Sch, while the Oregon Trunk railroad (Spokane Portland and Seattle) runs north-south through the center of the sheet, passing through the small settlement of Paxton. The eastern hills contain numerous family-named landmarks such as Monner Spring, Schmoker Spring, and Kutcher Well, alongside a network of pipelines and storage facilities that trace the development of water resources in Jefferson County during the early 1960s.
