About this map

The Upper Hood River Valley and the eastern slopes of the Cascade Range define this landscape within the Mount Hood National Forest. The E Fork Hood River serves as the primary drainage, flanked by significant elevation markers such as Bluegrass Ridge and Shellrock Mtn. This terrain is characterized by its high-altitude meadows and varied water sources, including Tamanawas Falls and numerous named springs like Shinners English Spring and Blue Bucket Spring.

Resource management and recreational access are visible through a network of established forestry routes, including Surveyors Ridge Rd and Dufur Mill Rd. High-country meadows like Brooks Meadow, Cooks Meadow, and Horkelia Meadow indicate the biological diversity of the forest floor, while features such as Gibson Prairie and Bottle Prairie mark distinct open spaces amidst the timbered ridges of the Mill Creek Buttes.
