2023 Map of Flag Point

About this map

The Fifteenmile Creek Wild and Scenic River and the Badger Creek Wilderness dominate this high-elevation landscape within the Mount Hood National Forest. The map documents a complex network of recreational and access trails, such as the Lookout Mountain Trl and Fret Creek Trl, which navigate the steep transition between peaks like Bulo Point and the basin containing Oval Lake. Evidence of water management in this arid alpine environment is visible through the presence of the Springer Ditch in the north and the Highland Ditch in the southeast, infrastructure used to divert runoff from local drainages like Badger Creek. Named springs such as Shadley Spring and Cedar Creek Spring dot the terrain, serving as critical water sources between prominent overlooks like Flag Point and Gordon Butte.
