2020 Map of Tygh Valley

About this map

Tygh Valley and the surrounding high plateau of Juniper Flat are the central focus of this Wasco County landscape. The topography is defined by the dramatic incision of the White Wild and Scenic River as it carves through the volcanic terrain toward its confluence with the Deschutes Wild and Scenic River in the southeast corner. Settlement patterns follow the water and the historic road networks, with the community of Pine Hollow situated near Threemile Creek. Genealogists will find the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cemetery near the valley floor and the Kelly Cemetery further south on the flat. The map illustrates a sophisticated irrigation and transportation network, from the Wapinitia Canal and Wapinitia Airport to various rural routes like Wamic Market Road and Old Wapinitia Road, reflecting the area's agricultural foundation.
