1963 Map of Pistol Butte

About this map

Fall River anchors this mid-century landscape in the Deschutes National Forest, winding eastward through a series of natural and man-made landmarks. The presence of the Fall River Fish Hatchery and a nearby Gaging Station reflect the managed state of these headwaters in the 1960s, while the Fall River Airfield provides a distinct touch of infrastructure amidst the volcanic terrain. Prominent volcanic features like Pistol Butte, which features a Lookout, and Wake Butte define the topography, illustrating the area's geological character.
