About this map

The Umatilla River cuts through this landscape of high ridges and deep canyons in eastern Oregon. This 2023 survey illustrates a terrain defined by steep changes in elevation, where Reservation Mtn and Gibbon Ridge overlook an intricate network of waterways and gulches. The presence of the Red Elk Cem near Red Elk Canyon provides a specific point of interest for genealogists studying the families of Umatilla County.

Infrastructure is characterized by winding routes such as the Thorn Hollow Grade and Bingham Rd, which follow the natural contours of the land. The map details the convergence of several significant drainages, including Spring Hollow Creek, Wildhorse Creek, and Isquulktpe Creek. The transition from the high points of Kanine Ridge to the depths of Stage Gulch reveals the complex geological character of the Thorn Hollow vicinity.
