1957 Map of Sled Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Wallowa National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape, characterized by high ridges and a complex network of springs and creeks. Ranching and forest management are central to the area's identity, evidenced by the Feagin Ranch and the Sled Springs Guard Sta. In the southwest corner, the topography softens near the Lostine River, where the Union Pacific Railroad and the Lostine Siding served the local community of Evans. For genealogists and local historians, the Wallowa Cem and Lostine Cem are significant points of interest. The map also records the location of the Summit Spring Forest Camp, highlighting the era's recreational use of the mountains. Distinctive landforms such as Washboard Ridge, Starvation Ridge, and Wayne Butte define the watershed divides between canyons like Whiskey Creek and Wildcat Creek.
