1967 Map of Ukiah

About this map

Ukiah and Albee anchor this mid-1960s survey of Umatilla County, where the southern boundary of the Umatilla National Forest meets a landscape defined by deep canyons and high plateaus. The settlement at Ukiah is established near the confluence of Camas Creek and Wilkins Creek, serving as a gateway to the wooded uplands. Transport patterns of the era are visible through a network of specialized routes, including the Steer Trail and a remote Landing Strip located north of town. The map also highlights early conservation and recreation efforts along the highway corridors, marked by the Battle Mtn Forest Wayside and the Ukiah-Dale Forest Wayside. Water resources are central to the geography here, with Owens Creek, Snipe Creek, and Pine Creek carving through the terrain, while several isolated springs and a Well indicate the importance of water management in this high-altitude environment.
