2023 Map of Petersburg

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Petersburg sits atop the high ground of Wasco County, overlooking a landscape defined by deep drainages and spring-fed coulees south of the Columbia River. This modern survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and ranching patterns of the region, where roads like McCoy Rd and Emerson Loop Rd trace the contours of the plateau. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, identifying three distinct burial sites: Petersburg Cem, Eightmile Cem, and Rice Cem. Along the northern edge, the transition to the river is marked by Lake Celilo and the dramatic Gushing Falls, while the interior terrain is broken by named features such as Japanese Hollow and Jameson Canyon. The inclusion of Island Memorial and the eastern boundary of the Mount Hood National Forest provides a clear view of how public lands and local settlements interact in this corner of Oregon.
