About this map

The confluence of the West Fork Hood River and East Fork Hood River serves as the focal point for this section of Mount Hood National Forest, where the settlement of Dee and the adjacent Dee Flat occupy the valley floor. This 2017 study details an intricate hydraulic landscape, from the high Japanese Springs and Crystal Springs to the engineered Oak Grove Ditch and Searra Casa Reservoir. The geography is defined by prominent elevations such as Blowdown Ridge and Trout Creek Ridge, which separate the various drainages feeding into the Upper Hood River Valley.

Notable for local history and genealogy is the Harry Wollam Grave located in the southern portion of the quadrangle near Batts Meadow. Infrastructure for forest management and local transit is well-documented, featuring named routes like Kingsley Rd and Lost Lake Rd, alongside the Dry Run Bridge. The map also captures several natural landmarks, including Punchbowl Falls and the headwaters of numerous creeks such as Green Point Cr and Lake Br.
