About this map

Belknap Springs and the surrounding wilderness of the Willamette National Forest define this 2020 landscape in the Cascade Range. The area is shaped by geothermal activity and the drainage systems of the McKenzie River and Horse Creek. Geothermal sites like Belknap Hot Spring and Foley Hot Springs are central landmarks, indicating the long-standing recreational and medicinal draw of the region.

Infrastructure is sparse, concentrated near the river corridor where the McKenzie Bridge State Airport and the small settlement of Little Smokey reside. The presence of the Lookout Creek Old Growth area underscores the protected status of the forest. Notable terrain features including Foley Ridge and Cupola Rock overlook a network of creeks such as Separation Cr and Rainbow Cr, which eventually lead to Rainbow Falls.
