1972 Map of Shop Gulch

About this map

The John Day River carves a central path through this section of Grant County, serving as the primary geographic corridor for transport and settlement. At Moores Crossing, a cluster of benchmarks and building footprints indicates a pocket of human activity along the river's edge, while a Footbridge further east provides a crossing point for those navigating the riparian landscape. The northern half of the map is defined by a series of steep drainages, including Shop Gulch, Belshaw Creek, and Cummings Creek, which flow southward toward the river valley.
