1980 Map of Omak

About this map

The Okanogan River corridor defines the landscape between Omak and Okanogan, where the river valley supports a concentrated hub of civic and industrial activity. This late-century survey documents the transition from the irrigated orchards of Bide a Wee Flat to the foothills of Pogue Mountain. The map details the local infrastructure of the era, from the Wenatchee Valley College campus and North Sch to the Mid Valley Hospital and the nearby Fish Hatchery. Cultural markers are prominent, including Okanogan Memorial Gardens and the Omak Memorial Cemetery. Transport and industry are represented by the Burlington Northern line and several extraction sites like the Brook Mine and various Gravel Pits, illustrating the active extraction and distribution economy of Okanogan County.
