About this map

Umatilla National Forest dominates this landscape in the mid-1990s, defined by its high ridges and isolated high-altitude meadows. The small settlement of Winlock sits in the southeast near a local Cem, while to the north, the Wetmore (Site) marks the location of a former habitation. The terrain is deeply carved by drainage systems like Threemile Creek and Camp Creek, punctuated by named peaks such as Frizzel Mountain and Indian Mountain.

Resource management and forestry operations are evident through the network of grade and 4wd tracks that provide access to remote areas like Snow Board Ridge and Snow Basin. Several small bodies of water, including Wineland Lake, Clark Lake, and Hubbel Lake, are scattered across the forest, alongside numerous springs and stock ponds that supported local livestock and wildlife in this part of Wheeler County.
