1986 Map of Multnomah Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Multnomah Falls and the dramatic verticality of the Columbia River Gorge dominate this mid-1980s survey, illustrating the convergence of natural wonders and transportation infrastructure. Along the Broughton Reach, the Historic Columbia River Highway and Route 84 trace the river's edge, connecting small communities like Dodson and Warrendale. The map provides a detailed view of the rugged terrain within the Mount Hood National Forest, where numerous cataracts including Oneonta Falls, Triple Falls, and Horsetail Falls drop from the high basins toward the river. To the north across the water, the Washington shore features the prominent Beacon Rock and the settlement of Skamania Landing. These data capture the region's character as both a protected recreational landscape, through sites like Benson State Park and Ainsworth State Park, and a critical transit corridor through the Cascade Mountains.
