About this map

Winema National Forest encompasses a landscape of high volcanic peaks and alpine basins in the southern Oregon Cascades. Dominating the topography is Aspen Butte, surrounded by the Grampian Hills and notable summits like Mt Harriman and Mt Carmine. This area is characterized by its high-elevation lake system, featuring clustered water bodies such as Lake Harriette, Hemlock Lake, and Coyote Lake.

Recreational access is anchored by the Mountain Lakes Loop, which connects various glacial cirques and peaks. To the east, the terrain descends toward the marshes and open water of Aspen Lake, where the wild forest interface meets the rural boundary along W Aspen Rd. The hydrography of the region is defined by drainages like Varney Cr and Clover Creek, which carve through the high country before reaching the basin floor.
