1968 Map of Bear Butte

About this map

Old Indian Treaty Boundary segments the high timberlands of the Pacific Northwest, dividing the landscape between the Fremont National Forest and Winema National Forest. This late 1960s survey documents a volcanic terrain defined by prominent peaks like Bear Butte, Doeskin Butte, and Little Yamsay Mtn. Industrial and ranching activity is sparse but present, noted at the Porter Ranch near the eastern edge and various Cinder Pits and a Quarry scattered among the timber. A complex network of drainages including Dillon Creek, Rock Creek, and Buckskin Creek feeds into clearings such as Long Prairie and Deely Meadow. The presence of a Lookout at Bear Butte and the Silver Lake Road suggests the area's role in fire management and resource access during this era.
