1956 Map of Fish Creek Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Clackamas River and its major tributaries, including the North Fork and Roaring River, dominate this mid-century survey of the Oregon wilderness. The landscape is defined by the early infrastructure of the national forest, featuring a network of sites like Fish Creek Forest Camp, Lazy Bend Forest Camp, and Ripplebrook Forest Camp. Along the riverbanks, specialized facilities like the Powerhouse near Three Lynx and the Sawmill on Bull Creek illustrate the industrial and utility development of the era. Higher elevations are marked by critical fire and safety outposts, such as the North Fork Guard Sta and Lookout Sprs Guard Sta. Significant landmarks for backcountry travel include the Fish Creek Landing Strip and the distant Austin Hot Springs, reflecting the remote yet increasingly accessible nature of the Cascades during the 1950s.
