2011 Map of Gobblers Knob

About this map

Barney Reservoir sits as a central hydrological feature in this high-elevation region of Washington County, where the headwaters of several major Oregon river systems diverge. The map documents a complex network of timber and access roads, such as NW Flora Mainline and the NW Trask Toll Rd, which snake through the steep divides of Grindstone Ridge and Blind Cabin Ridge. This landscape is defined by its deep drainages, including the North Fork Trask River and the North Yamhill River, highlighting the area's role as a critical watershed. Local landmarks like Ki-a-Kuts Falls and the prominent Gobblers Knob provide specific points of reference within the dense topography. For researchers, the presence of Murphys Camp and various spur ridges like Simmons Spur suggests a history tied to forest management and backcountry navigation at the start of the 21st century.
