1957 Map of Swan Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Swan Lake sits at the center of this 1957 topographic study, surrounded by a transition from high plateau timberland to productive valley floors. The Winema National Forest dominates the northern and western elevations, including the prominent Yawhee Plateau and the heights of Swan Lake Mtn. This era shows a landscape defined by ranching and institutional development, evidenced by the numerous named homesteads such as Coleman Ranch and Janssen Ranch scattered across the Swan Lake Valley. In the southwest corner, the campus of the Oregon Technical Institute is clearly delineated near Hogback Mountain. Transportation in the late 1950s relied on the Oregon California and Eastern RR, which skirts the eastern edge of the quadrangle through Yonna Valley. Smaller genealogical details include the Hibbert Cem and the Surveyors Spring Cem, providing specific points of interest for local historians.
