1951 Map of Post

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Crooked River cuts through the high desert of central Oregon, serving as the central axis for the small community of Post. This early 1950s survey documents a landscape defined by ranching and forest management within the Ochoco National Forest. The settlement of Post is anchored by the Post School, while outlying homesteads and resources like the Bonnieview Ranch and the Maury Guard Sta indicate the region's operational infrastructure. To the south, the Maury Mountains rise above Antelope Flat, containing the Maury Mtn Mines and several remote water sources like Badger Spr and Chipmunk Spr. The mapping of numerous springs, including Mule Deer Spring and Hammer Cr Spring, highlights the critical importance of water for livestock and mountain operations in this arid environment, while the presence of the Wiley Flat Camp Ground suggests the early emergence of forest recreation.
