2011 Map of Baldy Mountain

About this map

North Fork Smith River and its complex network of tributaries dominate this 2011 survey of western Lane County. The drainage patterns of Kentucky Creek and Sweet Creek reveal a landscape defined by significant elevation changes, most notably at the triple-tiered descent of Upper Kentucky Falls, Lower Kentucky Falls, and North Fork Falls. These water features are surrounded by high terrain markers including Mount Grayback and the prominent Baldy Mountain. Forest access is traced through a system of timber and agency roads like Hadsall Creek Rd and BLM 19 Rd. The map provides a detailed view of the ridgelines that separate these watersheds, such as Smittie Ridge and Hand Ridge, which have long served as the primary landmarks for navigation through this heavily forested portion of the Coast Range.
