1994 Map of Petersburg

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

The Dalles Dam and the Lake Celilo reservoir anchor the northwestern corner of this landscape, marking a point of intense industrial and hydrological development along the Columbia River. The map documents the complex energy infrastructure of the mid-1990s, including the Celilo Converter Sta and the Big Eddy Substation, which stand in contrast to the rural agricultural character of the surrounding uplands. Local history is etched into the terrain through sites like Viewpoint Grave Island Mem (Cem) and the Eightmile Cem. Further inland, the small settlements of Petersburg and Rice are linked by a network of historic thoroughfares such as the Old Dufur Road and Ward Road. The drainage patterns of Fifteenmile Creek and Eightmile Creek define the geography, where numerous storage bins and grain elevators alongside the Union Pacific tracks reflect the region's enduring reliance on dryland farming and river-corridor transport.
