About this map

The McKenzie River flows through a landscape defined by the drainage systems of the Cascade Range in this section of the Willamette National Forest. Small settlements like McKenzie Bridge and Rainbow serve as anchors along the McKenzie Hwy, which follows the river's northern bank. This corridor is the primary artery through a territory marked by prominent elevations such as Lookout Mtn, Castle Rock, and Macduff Mtn. To the west, the river system is influenced by Dearborn Island and the confluence of the Blue River.

Resource management and access are evident through an extensive network of forestry routes, including Natl Forest Develop Road 15 Rd and Horse Creek Rd. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the northern reaches of Cougar Reservoir, where Cougar Cr meets the impounded waters. The map details how these mountain roads and trails navigate the steep drainages of Lookout Cr and East Fork Horse Creek, illustrating the intersection of recreation and forest utility.
