1972 Map of Pine Creek Mtn

About this map

High peaks and mining claims define this 1970s survey of the Strawberry Range within the Malheur National Forest. The landscape is dominated by steep drainage basins feeding the Indian Creek and Pine Creek systems, where several mining operations like the Chambers Mine and Dry Camp Mine are situated on the slopes of Baldy Mountain. The presence of numerous labeled camps such as Yokum Corrals, Hotel De Bum Camp, and Bingham Camp indicates a backcountry economy tied to seasonal livestock grazing and forestry in the era before these areas were further restricted.
