About this map

Mt Hood dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, its summit and surrounding ice fields including Sandy Glacier and Eliot Glacier providing the source for numerous glacial streams. The drainage network is characterized by the Sandy Wild and Scenic River and the Middle Fork Hood Wild and Scenic River, which flow from high-elevation points like McNeil Point and Cooper Spur. A notable human landmark is the isolated Harry Wollam Grave situated near File Butte in the northern portion of the forest.

The northern section centers on Laurance Lake and its associated Laurance Lake High Loop, illustrating the area's development for recreation within the Mount Hood National Forest. Hikers and researchers can trace the high-country paths through Wy'east Basin, Eden Park, and Cairn Basin. The map captures the complex topography of ridges and canyons, from the steep walls of Weygandt Canyon to the prominent Barrett Spur.
