2017 Map of Gearhart Mountain

About this map

Gearhart Mountain dominates this portion of the Fremont National Forest, where the high Cascades terrain is defined by dramatic volcanic features and numerous natural springs. The landscape is marked by prominent high points such as The Dome and Haystack Rock, while the Gearhart Mountain Trail provides a primary route through the mountainous center. To the south, the settlement of Blaisdell sits along the S Fork Sprague River, serving as a low-lying contrast to the upland plateaus of Grouse Prairie and Jack Flat. This 2017 survey details a complex network of seasonal water sources, including Lookout Spring and Cottonwood Spring, which have long supported local high-country activity. The presence of several Palisade Rocks formations and numerous forest development roads illustrates the area's dual character as both a protected wilderness and a managed timber resource.
