1995 Map of Meacham Lake

About this map

Meacham and Kamela anchor this high-elevation landscape in the Blue Mountains, where the historic Old Indian Treaty Boundary carves a diagonal line through the forest. The mapping shows a working landscape of resource management and early weather observation, evidenced by the U.S. Weather Bureau Station and an Airway Beacon positioned near the crest. Much of the territory is defined by the Umatilla National Forest and the Wallowa Whitman National Forest, with the Blue Mountain Forest Wayside preserving a corridor for travelers along the modern transportation route. For local history, several isolated Grave sites and family-named landmarks like Folsoms Spring and Johnson Ridge provide specific points of interest. Water features such as Meacham Lake and Meacham Creek drain the steep canyons of Coyote Canyon and Dark Canyon.
