About this map

Salt Creek serves as the central corridor for this 1980s mountain survey, carving a path through the Willamette National Forest in Lane County. The area is defined by its hydrothermal activity and recreational infrastructure, notably around the settlement of McCredie Springs. Here, the proximity of McCredie Hot Springs and the Blue Pool Campground highlights the region's long-standing draw for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts. Further west, Kitson Hot Springs sits at the base of Kitson Ridge, marking another significant geothermal landmark.

Transport and utility patterns are evident in the small stops at Wicopee, Frazier, and Fields, which follow the drainage of the creek. The landscape is a complex of named peaks and ridges, from Heckletooth Mtn in the northwest to Coyote Mtn and the Warfield Hills in the southeast. Natural clearings like Crabapple Prairie provide a break in the heavy timber, while various quarries and gravel pits indicate the local industry supporting the road networks through these high passes.
