2023 Map of Crescent NE

About this map

Walker Rim dominates the southern half of this landscape, its sharp escarpment defining the transition between the high plateaus of the Klamath Basin. This 2023 survey delineates the meeting point of two major federal lands, where the northern boundary of the Winema National Forest abuts the Deschutes National Forest. The geography here is defined by significant elevation changes, with the rim itself serving as a natural barrier that influenced early transit and forestry access. The map reveals an intricate network of forest roads and land divisions within t24s r9e and t25s r10e, illustrating the contemporary management of these timberlands. The lack of concentrated settlements underscores the area's role as a protected wilderness and resource zone rather than a residential hub.
