1961 Map of Seneca

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Seneca stands as a focal point of this high-plateau region, situated at the confluence of the Silvies River and Bear Creek within the vast Malheur National Forest. The landscape is defined by the broad expanse of Bear Valley and Antelope Valley, where timber and ranching operations are evidenced by the Oregon Northwestern Railroad line and numerous logging roads. Named landmarks like Charlie Smith Butte and Jump-off Joe Mtn rise above the valleys, while the presence of the Maitland Airstrip and Silvies Landing suggest the remote infrastructure required for forest management and local commerce in the early 1960s.
