1988 Map of Cascade Gorge

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Rogue River dominates this 1988 survey of the southern Oregon landscape, showing the transition from the river's original course into the waters of Lost Creek Lake. The creation of this reservoir significantly altered the local geography, encompassing areas like the Joseph Stewart State Park and impacting the drainages of Floras Creek and Lost Creek. Infrastructure supporting the region's development is evident through the inclusion of Trans Lines, a Gaging Station, and a Radio Facility atop Flounce Rock. Local industry and land use are marked by numerous extraction sites, including a Quarry near Summit Prairie and various Borrow Pits. The map also captures several family-named landmarks and small holdings, such as Taggarts and Katydid Ranch, providing valuable points of reference for those researching late 20th-century land ownership and rural settlement patterns in Jackson County.
