1951 Map of Post

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Crooked River snakes through the high desert landscape of central Oregon, serving as the central artery for the small settlement of Post. This early 1950s survey documents a rural community centered around the Post School and a Cemetery, where the river valley provided a corridor for travel and ranching. The landscape transitions from the riparian bottomlands to the timbered slopes of the Maury Mountains and the Ochoco National Forest. Resource extraction and land management are evident through features like the Maury Mtn Mines and the Tower Point Lookout. The map also captures the early recreational footprint of the region at Wiley Flat Camp Ground, while marking specific river miles, from Mile 97 to Mile 113, that delineate the remote stretch of water winding between Pollard Butte and Polk Butte.
