1966 Map of Weippe North

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Weippe Prairie dominates the southern landscape of this mid-1960s survey, marking a transition from the agricultural plateaus to the timber-rich drainages of the Clearwater National Forest. The settlement of Weippe serves as a hub for the local timber industry, as evidenced by several named processing sites including Battles Mill, Johnsons Mill, and McGann Mill scattered throughout the valleys. To the north, the terrain drops sharply toward Orofino Creek and its many tributaries like Cow Creek and Haley Creek. The geography here reflects a working forest economy, with a network of unimproved roads and a Jeep Trail leading to landmarks such as Orofino Creek Point. Local life is further evidenced by the High Sch and Rodeo Grounds in the south, while the northern edge touches upon the higher elevations of the Camas Prairie.
