1956 Map of Diamond Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Diamond Lake serves as the central hub of this mid-century Cascades landscape, surrounded by a concentration of early forest service and recreational infrastructure. The presence of the Diamond Lake Guard Sta, a State Fish Hatchery, and several established sites like White Fir Forest Camp indicate a transition toward managed natural resources and seasonal tourism. High alpine peaks including Mt Thielsen and Mt Bailey define the skyline, while the southern portion of the map reveals the stark topography of the Pumice Desert within Crater Lake National Park. The map documents a complex boundary system where the Douglas and Klamath county lines intersect with four distinct national forest and park jurisdictions. For researchers, the detailed naming of small watercourses like Thielsen Creek and Silent Creek provides a clear view of the headwaters for the Clearwater River and Rogue River.
