About this map

Mt Isabelle and the surrounding peaks of Jackson County define this landscape of steep drainages and mountain ridges. The southern portion of the map is anchored by the community of Ruch, where the valley opens up along the lower reaches of Forest Creek. To the east of town, the Log Town Cem serves as a significant marker for genealogical research and local history.

The area's complex topography is etched with numerous gulches, including China Gulch, Matney Gulch, and George Black Gulch, many of which follow the seasonal watercourses feeding into the larger creek systems. Water management is evident through the presence of the Jacksonville Reservoir and Winningham Reservoir. Timber roads and trails like Timber Mountain Rd and Arrowhead Pass wind through the high country, connecting landmarks such as Baldy Mtn and Timber Mtn, illustrating the long-standing relationship between the local geography and the timber industry.
