2017 Map of Mount Fanny

About this map

Mount Fanny anchors this high-elevation landscape in eastern Oregon, where the boundaries of the Wallowa National Forest and Whitman National Forest meet. The terrain is defined by deep drainages and ridges, notably the Minam River and the Little Minam River which converge near the Union and Wallowa County line. The presence of the Minam Lodge Airport and Reds Wallowa Horse Ranch Airport indicates the region's reliance on wilderness aviation for access to remote interior points. Human impact is sparse but visible through hydraulic features like the Elmer Ditch and a network of named springs, including Lucky Spring and Lodgepole Spring, which support the seasonal grazing and forest management history of the area. Distinctive landmarks such as Backbone Ridge and Whiskey Flat provide essential geographic context for those tracing land use in this section of the Blue Mountains.
