What is known today as the
Umatilla National Forest is actually
the result of numerous consolida
tions and name changes that took
place during a period of nearly 20
years after the turn of the century
fhe first forest to he named the
Umatilla was originally called the
Heppncr Forest laicalcd in Mor
row, Wheeler, and Grant counties,

periodically and in 1908. the Hepp
