2017 Map of Flag Point

About this map

Mount Hood National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Wasco and Hood River counties, characterized by a complex network of ridges, springs, and water-management features. The map illustrates the sophisticated irrigation and water-diversion efforts in the region, featuring systems like the Highland Ditch, Springer Ditch, and the winding course of Threemile Cr. Peaks and promontories such as Jordan Butte, Gordon Butte, and Flag Point serve as primary landmarks, while scattered water sources like Three Bear Spring and Shadley Spring provide essential points of interest for those tracing the historical geography of these uplands. Forestry management and access are clearly defined through the presence of various development roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 4811 and the Flag Point Lookout Rd, which leads toward the higher elevations.
