About this map

Climax and the high elevations of the southern Cascade Range define this landscape in Jackson County. The terrain is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Grizzly Peak and Eagle Butte, with water management playing a central role in the area's development. Multiple catchments including the Shale City Reservoirs, Lake Creek Reservoir, and Guidottie Reservoir are distributed across the drainage basins of Lost Creek and South Fork Little Butte Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Lake Creek Cemetery situated in the northern reaches, while the small settlement of Shale City sits near the reservoir that shares its name. The map documents an intricate network of forest and access roads, such as Shale City Rd and Soda Creek Access Rd, which connect remote features like Bybee Gulch and Lucky Canyon. These labels reflect a history of timber management and small-scale mountain habitation.
