About this map

The Warm Springs Agency sits at the heart of this central Oregon landscape, where the Warm Springs River and Shitike Creek carve deep canyons through the high plateau. The map details a period of transition as the Oregon Trunk and Union Pacific railroads follow the path of the Deschutes River, connecting remote outposts like Mecca and Kaskela to the growing commercial centers of Madras and Metolius. These river corridors contrast sharply with the broad, dry expanses of Agency Plains and Schoolie Flat, where early schools such as New Era Sch and Mountain View Sch served dispersed ranching families.
