2014 Map of Puderbaugh Ridge

About this map

The Imnaha River flows through the northern reaches of this high-elevation terrain, passing the settlement of Fruita as it winds between the steep drainages of the Wallowa National Forest. This 2014 survey reveals a landscape dominated by dramatic vertical relief, where prominent landmarks like Puderbaugh Ridge and Summit Ridge divide a dense network of mountain creeks. Forest service access is documented through routes such as the Wallowa Mountain Loop and the River Canyon Rd, providing a framework for the remote timber and grazing lands of the region. The map also delineates the boundary with the Whitman National Forest, highlighting the vast public land management systems in place. Notable local landmarks including P O Saddle and McGraw Spring offer specific points of interest for those tracing the geographic history and land use patterns of Wallowa County.
