2024 Map of Groundhog Mountain

About this map

The Willamette National Forest dominates this section of the Oregon Cascades, defined by a network of drainage basins and high-elevation ridges. The topography is anchored by Groundhog Mtn and Little Groundhog Mtn at its center, with the notable Waterdog Lake positioned on the western slopes. This 2024 survey documents the hydrography of the region, where the North Fork Groundhog Creek and South Fork Groundhog Creek converge. The landscape is marked by several significant peaks including Moss Mtn and Bear Mtn in the east, and Logger Butte to the south. While largely an undeveloped wilderness, the map traces specific recreational access points like the Middle Fork Trl and Pool Creek Trl, alongside the distinct open clearing of Joes Prairie near the northwestern boundary.
