1995 Map of Stentz Spring

About this map

Umatilla National Forest dominates this mid-1990s topographical view of the border between Columbia and Garfield Counties. The landscape is defined by a dense network of high ridges and springs, including the distinctive Devils Eyebrow and the aptly named Hard-to-get-to Ridge. Human presence is concentrated at seasonal and administrative outposts such as Powell Camp, Ruchert Camp, and the Stentz Spring Recreation Residence. The Tucannon River carves through the southern half of the quadrangle, which also encompasses a portion of the Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness. Resource management and fire lookout history are evident at the Clearwater Guard Station and nearby Lookout, while the local topography is cataloged through numerous named water sources like Twin Spring and Deadhorse Spring.
