1967 Map of Ukiah SE

About this map

The John Day River flows through the southern portion of this landscape, marking a significant transition in the terrain south of the Umatilla National Forest. The map reflects a region defined by high-elevation springs and complex drainage systems, where names like Hello Boy Spring, Ross Spring, and Overtime Spring suggest the vital importance of water sources to the land's management. The presence of the Bridge Creek Wildlife Area indicates a shift toward conservation and habitat protection during the late twentieth century. In the northern reaches, the steep descents of Randall Canyon and Meengs Canyon guide the flow toward Pine Creek and Bridge Creek. This survey captures the remote character of northeastern Oregon, where public land boundaries and small-scale features like the Drift Fence Campground define human interaction with the wilderness.
