1988 Map of Mc Leod

About this map

Lost Creek Lake and the newly forming Elk Creek Lake dominate this Jackson County landscape, reflecting a period of major hydrologic and recreational transformation along the Rogue River. The 1980s data shows the footprint of reservoir development, including infrastructure like the Powerhouse, Intake Tower, and Spillway. Near the small settlement of McLeod, the Cole M. Rivers Fish Hatchery stands as a significant facility for river management, complemented by several public recreation areas such as McGregor Park and Joseph Stewart State Park. Historically significant sites such as the Elk Trail Sch and the McLeod Guard Sta provide points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking early forest service and educational presence in the area. High points like Tatouche Peak and Fawn Butte rise above the complex network of creeks, including Big Butte Creek and Middle Creek.
