About this map

Camp Wooten State Park and the Tucannon Campground mark the recreational heart of this mountainous Columbia County landscape, where the Tucannon River cuts through deep canyons like Mill Canyon and Grub Canyon. The map details the transition from the protected woodlands of the Umatilla National Forest into the high ridges of the Wenana Tucannon Wilderness.

Tracing the complex drainage of Panjab Creek and Turkey Tail Creek, the topography reveals a network of primitive backcountry paths, including the evocative Misery Trail and Crooked Creek Trail. High-elevation landmarks such as The Wheatfield and Indian Corral suggest the historical grazing and ranching patterns common to these ridges before stricter wilderness protections were established. Dozens of isolated water sources like Red Fir Spring and Bullfrog Spring are noted throughout the terrain.
