About this map

Weippe Prairie dominates the southern portion of this mid-1990s survey, illustrating a landscape defined by its timber industry and upland agriculture. The settlement of Weippe serves as the local hub, supported by a network of lumber operations including the Medley Cedar Mill, Timber Savers Mill, and the Timberline Mill. These active sites are noted alongside historical markers like Battles Mill (Site) and Johnsons Mill (Site), revealing the long-term economic reliance on the surrounding forests.

Waterways like Orofino Creek and Grasshopper Creek carve through the terrain, which transitions from the flat prairie land to the more varied topography of Orofino Creek Point. Educational and community life is anchored by Timberline High School and the local Rodeo Grounds. Further north, the small cluster at Omill and the remote Shake Meadow reflect the distributed nature of mountain settlements in this part of Clearwater County.
