About this map

The Rogue River flows through this high-elevation landscape where the boundaries of the Umpqua National Forest, Rogue River National Forest, and Crater Lake National Park meet. The area is defined by significant volcanic and glacial topography, including Hamaker Butte, Sherwood Butte, and Buckneck Mtn. Multiple drainages converge here, with Muir Creek featuring Muir Creek Falls and the W Diamond Lake Hwy providing the primary corridor through the timberland.

Detailed surveyors' notes reveal a series of high meadows and springs that have historically supported the region's ecosystem, such as Hamaker Meadows, Beaver Meadows, and Soda Spring. Notable ridgelines like Minnehaha Ridge and Razor Ridge frame the deep canyons of National Creek and Wizard Creek. The map also captures the complex network of Forest Service roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 800 and Nat For Dev Rd 6530, which trace the difficult terrain between Douglas and Klamath counties.
