2017 Map of Maklaks Crater

About this map

Crater Lake National Park and the adjacent Winema National Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape in the southern Cascade Range. The map details a volcanic geography defined by prominent features like Maklaks Crater and Crater Peak, alongside the dramatic erosional formations of The Pinnacles within Pinnacle Valley. Hydrological patterns show the headwaters of Annie Creek and Sun Creek carving deep drainage channels through the pumice and ash deposits characteristic of the region. A network of forest service routes and winter trails, including the Boundary Tour and Diamond Lake Snomo route, indicates how the area is managed for both preservation and seasonal recreation. High passes such as Tututni Pass and Maklaks Pass provide critical navigation points across the ridgelines of Vidae Ridge and Grayback Ridge, illustrating the challenging transit routes used by both naturalists and foresters.
