2014 Map of Flag Point

About this map

Mount Hood National Forest dominates this landscape along the Hood River and Wasco County line, characterized by a complex network of high-elevation ridges and deep creek drainages. The 2014 survey documents a land defined by water management and fire observation infrastructure, notably the Flag Point Lookout Rd leading to the prominent Flag Point. Engineering for water transport is evident through the Springer Ditch and Highland Ditch, which cut across the varied terrain to move resources from the high country. Numerous remote water sources such as Three Bear Spring, Bennett Spring, and Sunset Springs are documented alongside notable peaks like Gordon Butte and Hootnanny Point. This map provides a detailed look at the wilderness interface in the early 21st century, showing how forest roads and trails navigate between landmarks like Eightmile Meadow and Oval Lake.
