2017 Map of Mount Lowe

About this map

The Mount Hood National Forest landscape across the Clackamas and Marion County line is defined by its network of forest development roads and prominent alpine meadows. This 2017 survey details the complex hydrography of the high Cascades, where the Clackamas River and the E Fork Collawash River gather water from numerous named tributaries like Tumble Cr, Lowe Cr, and Pinhead Cr. The topography is anchored by Mt Lowe and the striking Granite Peaks in the northwest, transitioning into the high-altitude Rhododendron Ridge. Local identifiers such as Graham Pass and family-named clearings like Eds Meadow, Jim Meadow, and Bob Meadow provide specific landmarks for those navigating the backcountry. In the far southern reaches of the quadrangle, Round Lake sits near the headwaters of Ogre Cr, illustrating the remote nature of this protected wilderness area.
