1965 Map of Marley Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Starkey and Camp Elkanah occupy the northern reaches of this mid-1960s survey, where the Grande Ronde River and Meadow Creek converge. The landscape is dominated by the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range and the Whitman National Forest, reflecting a region dedicated to forestry and watershed management. A distinctive legacy of earlier industry is visible in the Old Railroad Grade winding through the northern valley, once a vital link for timber extraction that now follows the contours of the creek. Numerous water sources, such as McCarty Spring, Coon Spring, and Pickle Spring, are scattered across the high ridges, including Whitehorse Ridge. The presence of the Johnson Rock Lookout Tower at the southern edge suggests the critical role of fire observation in this heavily timbered terrain.
