About this map

Sherod Meadows sits at the heart of this high-altitude landscape within the Wallowa National Forest, where the terrain is defined by a series of prominent northern Oregon divides. The massive Powwatka Ridge dominates the central portion of the map, flanked by Tope Ridge and the heavily articulated slopes of Washboard Ridge. This 1990 survey captures the area’s dependence on natural water sources, identifying numerous named points such as Yellow Jacket Spring, Five Dollar Spring, and Fourth of July Spring. A critical navigational and historical landmark, the Lookout Tower Tope Creek, stands at an elevation of 4,720 feet, overlooking the deep drainage of Tope Creek. The map also traces the winding courses of Wildcat Creek, Straight Whisky Creek, and Alder Creek, illustrating a complex network of seasonal and perennial waterways that have shaped the land use and accessibility of this forested region.
