1955 Map of Echo Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Willamette National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in the mid-1950s, characterized by a complex network of peaks and drainages. The Middle Fork Santiam River and South Pyramid Creek dominate the northern terrain, carving through the geography near Pyramid and South Pyramid. The map reveals a mid-century reliance on forest management and recreation, evidenced by established sites like House Rock Forest Camp and Fish Lake Forest Camp. High points such as Echo Mtn, Iron Mtn, and the Twin Buttes provide vertical context to the numerous creeks including Huckleman Creek and Ikenick Creek. Distinctive clearings and meadows, such as Tombstone Prairie, Lost Prairie, and Wolf Meadow, suggest breaks in the heavy timber that served as local landmarks for travelers and foresters. The survey also captures the boundary between Linn and Lane counties in the southern reaches, near Wolf Rock and the lookout at Carpenter Mtn.
