2020 Map of Bearbones Mountain

About this map

Calapooya Divide serves as a natural boundary within this mountainous corridor of the Cascades, separating the drainage systems of the Willamette National Forest and the Umpqua National Forest. The map detail highlights an intricate network of timber and access routes, most notably the historical 4wd Noonday Wagon Rd and the Annie Trail (Noonday Connect) traversing Noonday Ridge. This area is defined by its dramatic elevation changes, where peaks like Bearbones Mtn and Grizzly Mtn overlook a landscape of deep drainages including Steamboat Cr and Brice Cr. Isolated pockets of level terrain such as Johnson Meadows and landmarks like Frog Rock provide distinct navigational points for those studying the land management and forest history of eastern Lane County. Water features are abundant, from the high Windfall Lake and Gertrude Lake to the secluded Knott Spring.
