About this map

Elk Lake and its cluster of mid-century recreation sites anchor this survey of the Cascade high country. The landscape is defined by its volcanic geology and high-altitude hydrology, featuring landmarks like Red Crater and the Cinder Pit alongside a dense network of alpine water bodies including Hosmer Lake and Lava Lake. This 1960s record captures the region as a primitive recreational hub within the Deschutes National Forest, where established campgrounds like Beach Campground and Mallard Marsh Campground served travelers along the Cascade Lakes Highway.
