2024 Map of Tygh Valley

About this map

Juniper Flat dominates the high plateau of this Wasco County landscape, where the agricultural transition between the desert and the river canyons is clearly defined. The settlement of Tygh Valley sits at the confluence of Tygh Creek and the White River, a location historically significant for its water access and proximity to the White Wild and Scenic River corridor. The map reveals a network of land-use history, from the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cem and Kelly Cem to the critical irrigation infrastructure of the Wapinitia Canal. To the south, the community of Wapinitia is served by the small Wapinitia Airport, illustrating the rural transportation patterns that persist across this arid terrain. Extensive family-named roads like Val Miller Rd and Earl Crabtree Rd trace the property boundaries of the Natural Pasture and larger ranching operations found throughout the region.
