1994 Map of Battle Ax

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Bull of the Woods Wilderness dominates this mid-1990s landscape, where complex mountain ridges and high-altitude lakes define the boundary between the Mount Hood National Forest and Willamette National Forest. The map details a primitive recreational network, highlighting the Whetstone Trail and Twin Lake Trail as they navigate peaks like Silver King Mountain and Sardine Mountain. A notable geological landmark, Phantom Natural Bridge, stands near the western edge above French Creek. The convergence of Humbug Creek, Beachie Creek, and the Breitenbush River suggests a watershed that remained largely untouched by major development during this era, focused instead on timber management and wilderness preservation. Hikers and researchers can trace the paths to remote waters such as Silver King Lake, Opal Lake, and Giebeler Lake, which are tucked deep within the high-relief terrain.
