2011 Map of Pogue Point

About this map

Blue Mountain Summit anchors this high-elevation landscape in Baker County, where the headwaters of the Burnt River system carve through the terrain. The map reveals a complex network of mountain drainage, including the North Fork Burnt River and West Fork Burnt River, alongside numerous high-country meadows such as Summit Meadow, Olmstead Meadow, and Lyman Meadow. These open spaces, often historically significant for grazing or early camps like Fourth Creek Camp, are interconnected by a web of Forest Service roads including NFS RD 303 RD and Usfs RD 343. The high count of named water sources, such as Crusher Spring, Low Pass Spring, and Lee Spring, suggests the importance of reliable water in this upland environment, supporting both the local ecology and historical land use across Pogue Point.
