1974 Map of Parkdale
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The settlement of Parkdale anchors the southern portion of this Hood River Valley landscape, serving as a hub for the surrounding orchards and timberlands. In the mid-1970s, the region was defined by its sophisticated water management and transport networks, including the Farmers River Ditch and the Union Pacific rail line. The terrain rises sharply toward Middle Mountain and Booth Hill, while the East Fork Hood River carves through the valley floor. Genealogy researchers will find the Upper Valley Cem near the town center and Shelley Cem to the northeast. Local industry and infrastructure are represented by features like the Hanel Airstrip, several Gravel Pits, and the Hood River Valley Ranger Station, reflecting a period when the valley's economy balanced recreation at Zira Dimmick State Park with active resource management.
