About this map

Breitenbush Hot Springs serves as the central focal point of this Cascade Range survey, situated at the confluence of the Breitenbush River and Mansfield Creek. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major forest management areas, including Mt Hood National Forest, Willamette National Forest, and the Mt Jefferson Wilderness. This geography is marked by high-altitude features like Hawk Mountain, which is capped by a Lookout Tower, and distinctive ridges such as Rhododendron Ridge.

Evidence of recreational and logistical development is visible through sites like the Breitenbush Guard Station, Cleator Bend Campground, and several quarries scattered throughout the drainage basins. The intricate hydrological network includes the Collawash River and numerous high-mountain water bodies such as Sportsman Lakes and Round Lake. The presence of transmission lines cutting across the mountain slopes illustrates the modern infrastructure integrated into this wilderness setting.
