About this map

Service Creek and the winding John Day River anchor this late-1980s landscape in Wheeler County. The river’s path is punctuated by Shoofly Rapids and a Gaging Sta, while the surrounding terrain is defined by deep canyons and prominent ridges. Notable peaks include Heidtmann Mountain, Shell Rock Mountain, and Corral Mtn. The map preserves several family-named landmarks and geographic features such as McClung Canyon, Rowe Williams Canyon, and Ben Glenn Ridge, suggesting a history of land use tied to these specific drainages. An intriguing Historical Boundary Marker is noted near Pine Canyon, alongside evidence of grazing and water management at Two Pipes Springs and Dutch Flat. The presence of numerous 4WD trails across Davis Ridges indicates a working landscape and access network for the region's cattle and timber heritage during the 1980s.
