2014 Map of Mount Fanny

About this map

Mountain Fanny dominates the high country of the Eagle Cap area within the Whitman National Forest, as shown in this 2014 survey. This portion of the Blue Mountains is defined by sharp elevation shifts and a complex network of headwaters, including the Minam River and the Little Minam River. The map reveals a landscape managed for both preservation and remote access, featuring backcountry airstrips such as the Minam Lodge Airport and Reds Wallowa Horse Ranch Airport tucked into the river canyons. These landings serve as critical links to the interior wilderness where roads are scarce. Notable water sources like Mount Fanny Spring and Lodgepole Spring are documented alongside human-made infrastructure like the Palmer Ditch. The terrain is punctuated by distinctive landforms, including Dunns Bluff and the broad opening of Whiskey Flat, illustrating the transition from steep ridges to high-altitude meadows.
