1957 Map of Sled Springs

About this map

The Lostine River valley serves as the primary corridor for human activity in this corner of the Wallowa National Forest. Following the river's path, the Union Pacific Railroad links the small settlements of Lostine and Evans, supporting the local economy of the late 1950s. The landscape is defined by its water resources and high-elevation drainage, with numerous named points such as Five Dollar Spring, Yellow Jacket Spring, and Fourth of July Spring feeding the complex creek systems. While the valleys host ranching operations like the Feagin Ranch and vital services such as the Lostine Cem, the higher ground is dedicated to forest management and recreation. Landmarks like the Sled Springs Guard Sta and Summit Spring Forest Camp indicate the active stewardship of the timberlands, while the intricate network of ridges, including Washboard Ridge and McAllister Ridge, dictates the region's transport and drainage patterns.
