1996 Map of Wapinitia

About this map

Juniper Flat dominates the northern landscape of this Wasco County region, where the small settlements of Pine Grove and Wapinitia sit atop the high plateau. The map details a significant cultural and administrative boundary, tracing the Warm Springs Indian Reservation Boundary as it cuts across the Laughlin Hills and Paquet Gulch. This boundary includes a reference to the historic McQuinn Line 1884, a crucial marker in Oregon land survey history. To the west, the evergreen expanse of the Mount Hood National Forest begins, while the southern portion of the map is defined by the canyon-carved terrain of the Warm Springs Indian Reservation. Local landmarks such as the Oak Grove Sch, the Rainbow Quarry, and several high points like Simnasho Butte provide specific points of interest for those studying the rural infrastructure and geography of the area in the late twentieth century.
