About this map

Camp Sherman serves as the focal point of this recreational and wilderness landscape on the eastern slopes of the Cascade Range. The 2014 survey captures a region defined by its remarkable hydrology, notably the Head of the Metolius and Metolius Spring, where the Metolius River emerges with significant volume. The map details the complex drainage systems of First Cr, Jack Cr, and Cache Cr, which carve through the Deschutes National Forest.

The presence of Suttle Lake and Scout Lake in the southwest corner, alongside the prominent volcanic landmark of Black Butte, highlights the intersection of geological history and modern forest management. A dense network of forest development roads, such as Nat For Dev Rd 1234 and SW Camp Sherman Rd, indicates the area's transition from early timber access to a primary destination for outdoor heritage.
