2011 Map of Wapinitia

About this map

Pine Grove and Wapinitia serve as the primary focal points of this high plateau in Wasco County, where the landscape is defined by a network of drainage gulches and seasonal creeks. The terrain transitions from the volcanic prominence of Bald Peter Butte toward the canyon-carved paths of Wapinitia Creek and Rice Creek. Rural infrastructure is grounded by long-standing landmarks such as the Wapinitia Cemetery and Red Lake Cemetery, which provide essential touchpoints for genealogical research in this sparsely populated region. Industrial activity is represented by the Rainbow Quarry, while the southern reaches of the map highlight water sources like Nena Spring and Red Lake. This document illustrates a landscape managed through a complex system of Bureau of Indian Affairs and Forest Service routes, including BIA 3 Rd and S 421 Rd, reflecting the intersection of public lands and traditional ranching or agricultural tracts.
