1955 Map of Hardesty Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Lookout Point Lake dominates the central landscape of this mid-century survey, tracing the narrow valley floor where the Southern Pacific railroad and Willamette Highway parallel the water. The map documents a period of significant infrastructure development within the Willamette National Forest, as the reservoir and transportation corridor transformed the accessibility of the surrounding mountain ranges. High-elevation points like Hardesty Mtn and Eagles Rest offer geographical context to the drainage basins of Winberry Creek and Fall Creek. In the southeast, the company town of Westfir is shown with its specific community markers, including the Westfir HS, while recreation sites such as Dolly Varden Campground and Shady Dell Camp dot the creeks and riverbanks. This record is particularly valuable for tracing the alignment of the railroad through the Lookout Point Tunnel and identifying small station points like Minnow and Hampton along the historic rail line.
