1972 Map of Rail Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The South Fork Burnt River carves through the high timberlands of eastern Oregon, serving as a focal point for recreation and resource management in the early 1970s. This survey captures a landscape defined by its dual identity as a working forest and a wilderness retreat, where the boundaries of the Malheur National Forest and Whitman National Forest converge. Traces of industrial history are evident at the Bullrun Mine and Orion Mine along Mine Ridge, while the established Elk Creek Campground and South Fork Campground suggest the area's importance to outdoor enthusiasts.
