This geospatial database maps the distribution of landforms along the Umatilla River in northeastern Oregon and covers a corridor 127 kilometers long from the confluence of the Umatilla River with the Columbia River upstream to Meacham Creek. The database encompasses the valley bottom and extends about 1 kilometer up the adjoining hillslopes. Map data are intended to support water quality and fisheries enhancement efforts pursuant to the First Foods, a resource-management approach that focuses on traditionally gathered foods including water, fish, big game, roots, and berries and calls attention to the reciprocity between people and the foods upon which humans depend. The Umatilla River drains about 6,300 square kilometers on the northwest slope of the Blue Mountains in northeast Oregon. Most of the drainage basin is underlain by Miocene basalt flows of the Columbia River Basalt Group. Younger, weakly lithified, late Miocene and early Pliocene gravel deposits of local origin (for example, McKay Formation) are mapped in a few places. Upland surfaces are mantled with windborne silt (loess) correlative with deposits elsewhere known as the Palouse Formation. Surfaces below an elevation of about 340 meters were inundated repeatedly by large Pleistocene glacial outburst floods, most emanating from glacial Lake Missoula in western Montana. In backflooded areas such as the lower Umatilla River valley, Missoula floods deposited extensive slack-water silt. Areas mapped as open water, active channel and tie channel, flood basin, valley bottom, and modified land constitute the geomorphic floodplain: the area subject to occasional inundation by the Umatilla River. Deposits and landforms within the floodplain are inset into Missoula flood deposits and hence postdate the 20–15-kilo-annum Missoula floods. Some floodplain deposits are no more than a few centuries old, as indicated by substantial erosion and deposition during the Umatilla River flood of February 2020, the largest since systematic measurements began in October 1903. Deposits and landforms of the floodplain are transient features within the longer-term incision of the Umatilla River into mid-Miocene flood basalts and younger gravel of the McKay Formation.
