About this map

The high peaks and drainages of Deschutes National Forest dominate this 2014 survey, highlighting a landscape defined by significant elevations and water systems. Named landmarks such as the volcanic Lionshead and the prominent Bald Peter rise above a network of waterways, including the Whitewater River and numerous tributaries like Shitike Cr and Milk Cr. The presence of Camp Creek Reservoir and the nearby Camp Creek Butte indicate the importance of water management in this high-altitude environment.

Surface transportation is dictated by the terrain, with BIA routes and forest roads like NW Bald Peter Rd navigating the complex topography. Historically significant markers such as Peters Pasture and the Biddle Pass provide context for land use and movement through this part of Jefferson County. The map provides a clear view of the interface between wilderness boundaries and the natural drainage patterns of Jefferson Cr and Parker Cr as they appeared in the early 21st century.
