About this map

Gearhart Mountain Wilderness defines the northern reaches of this high-elevation landscape in Lake County. The terrain is anchored by several prominent geological formations, including Haystack Rock, The Dome, and Palisade Rocks, which rise above the surrounding Fremont National Forest. This modern 2023 survey documents the drainage patterns of the South Fork Sprague River and its numerous tributaries, such as Corral Creek and Leonard Creek.

Evidence of human presence and historical travel is noted through the Mitchell Monument and named flats like Grouse Prairie and Jack Flat. To the south, the settlement of Blaisdell marks a localized point of interest. The map also traces established paths like the Old Trunk and S Fuller Walker, alongside numerous water sources such as Mitten Spring and Salt Spring, which have long served travelers and land managers in this forested region.
