About this map

Mount Hood National Forest dominates this section of Wasco County, where a complex network of forestry and access roads navigates the high-elevation terrain. This modern survey illustrates a landscape managed for both timber and recreation, centered on the prominent Beaver Butte and the nearby Rocky Point. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by the many forks of Beaver Creek and Willow Creek as they descend from Long Ridge.

Evidence of historical water management appears in the northeast with the Clear Creek Ditch, while the presence of Beaver Lookout Rd suggests a legacy of fire observation and forest monitoring. Small features like Bear Spring provide localized points of interest for those tracking historical water sources or primitive campsites. The map provides a detailed view of several forest service and Bureau of Indian Affairs routes, including BIA Rd 17, reflecting the area's proximity to tribal lands and national forest boundaries.
