2014 Map of Chemult

About this map

Chemult sits as a central hub in this high-desert landscape, located within the expansive Winema National Forest. The settlement is closely tied to the transportation corridor of Us-97 and The Dalles-California Hwy, which run parallel to the eastern edge of the forest. To the south, the Beaver Marsh State Airport serves this isolated region, while a gas pipeline and a local Cinder Pit reflect the infrastructure and industrial activity of the mid-20th century. The terrain is marked by significant elevations like Deer Butte and the prominent Walker Rim that towers over the eastern flats. Water sources are vital but scattered, represented by Murphy Spring, Red Bone Spring, and the winding courses of Deer Cr and Miller Cr. This map documents a managed forest environment where timber access roads like Pole Rd and Nat For Dev Rd 9771 weave through the volcanic geography.
