1963 Map of Davis Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Deschutes National Forest dominates this volcanic landscape, where the Deschutes River winds toward the eastern shoreline of Wickiup Reservoir. The presence of a massive Lava flow south of Davis Creek indicates the area's geologically active past, creating a striking natural boundary between the river system and Davis Lake to the southwest. This 1963 survey captures a specific era of forest management and recreation, documented by a Lookout Tower atop Davis Mountain and a network of campsites including Sheep Bridge Campground and North Wickiup Campground. The map also details the hydrology of the High Cascades, noting numerous Springs and the distinct circular forms of North Twin Lake and South Twin Lake. Evidence of local infrastructure is seen in the Moore Creek Trail and various pits used for materials, such as a Cinder Pit and Borrow Pit.
