1964 Map of Cougar Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Fremont National Forest dominates this mid-1960s landscape, where the high-altitude terrain is marked by distinctive flats and named ridges. Cattle ranching and early infrastructure are evident at the Drews Valley Ranch along the edge of the Drews Valley, while the interior of the forest contains historical markers like Lucky Camp and the winding Old Railroad Grade. The network of springs, including Mcclendon Spring and Hilario Spring, suggests a landscape vital for both local livestock and forest management. High points such as Cougar Peak, with its lookout, and Grizzly Peak provide vantage points over the complex drainage systems of Cottonwood Creek and Chandler Creek. The inclusion of the Cougar Creek Campground and Beaver Dam Picnic Ground reflects the post-war expansion of recreational access into these Oregon highlands, providing a snapshot of the region before modern development.
