1962 Map of Postage Stamp Butte

About this map

Postage Stamp Butte dominates the central landscape of this section of Wasco County, situated north of the fertile Tygh Valley. The map reveals a transition between the elevated plateau of Tygh Ridge and the deep incisions of Butler Canyon, where drainage systems like Adkisson Creek and Tooter Creek converge. In the valley floor to the south, the Tygh Valley Fairgrounds and the Highline Ditch suggest a community organized around agriculture and seasonal gatherings, while the presence of a remote Airstrip near Tygh Ridge Summit highlights the logistical needs of this high-altitude terrain.
