About this map

Wood River Springs emerge at the foot of Sun Mtn, feeding a complex network of waterways that define the northern Wood River Valley. This landscape transitions from the dense timberlands of the Winema National Forest to an intricate system of agricultural and resource-management channels, including the Melhase Ditch and Fort Cr Ditch. The settlement of Fort Klamath serves as the central point of human activity, situated near the Middley Bridge and the Fort Klamath Cem.

The presence of numerous natural water sources like Hatchery Spring and Reservation Spring underscores the hydrologic importance of the region. To the south, Agency Hill rises above the valley floor, accessed by the Agency Hill Lookout Rd. The western edge of the map reveals the beginning of the Williamson River, illustrating how these mountain-fed streams consolidate as they move toward the basin.
