2023 Map of Postage Stamp Butte

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Kingsley and the northern reaches of Tygh Valley define this portrait of the central Oregon plateau in the modern era. The landscape is a complex system of drainage and irrigation, evidenced by the Highline Ditch and Hendricks Reservoirs which support local agriculture. The terrain transitions from the high point of Postage Stamp Butte down into deep incisions like Butler Canyon and Gurley Canyon. Genealogical interest is anchored by three distinct burial sites: Catholic Cem, Kingsley Cem, and Tygh Valley Cem, reflecting the area's early settlement patterns. Transport across the ridges is maintained via routes like Kingsley-Friend Mkt Rd and Shearer's Bridge Rd, tracing the legacy of ranching and market access in Wasco County.
