About this map

Wallowa National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in Wallowa County, where a complex network of canyons and ridges dictates the drainage patterns toward Joseph Cr. The plateau is dominated by Table Mountain, a central high point surrounded by various perennial sources such as Table Mountain Spring, Wilder Spring, and Milk Spring. These water sources were vital for the seasonal livestock grazing and forest management that characterized the early 21st-century interior Northwest.

Deep incisions like Pole Patch Canyon, Vawter Canyon, and Trap Canyon illustrate the dramatic verticality of the terrain. Early transportation and access routes are represented by forest developments like Nat For Dev Rd 4650, which navigate around prominent landmarks such as Haystack Rock and Starvation Ridge. The map documents a wilderness environment shaped by its hydrology, from the North Fork Cliff Cr to the uniquely named Two-Bit Fork.
