1965 Map of Mount Moriah

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Mount Moriah rises as the central landmark of this mid-1960s topographic study, situated along the boundary of Union Co Wallowa Co. The landscape is dominated by the steep drainages of the Minam River and the Little Minam River, which carve through the dense woodlands of the Whitman National Forest and Wallowa National Forest. This map captures a wilderness area defined by its reliance on a Pack Trail and Jeep Trail network rather than developed roads, reflecting the primitive access typical of the region's interior during this era. High-altitude features like Monument Point, Elk Point, and Mahogany Ridge define the vertical relief, while isolated water sources such as Chicken Spring and Rock Spring provide critical points of reference for forest navigation. The presence of Horse Meadow and Horse Basin Creek suggests the historical use of these uplands for seasonal grazing and packing.
