About this map

Mount Wilson and its surrounding peaks define this high-country landscape in the Mount Hood National Forest area. Near the northern edge of the Warm Springs Reservation, the terrain is shaped by the drainage systems of the Oak Grove Fork Clackamas River and the Warm Springs River. The map captures a high-elevation environment where recreation and resource management intersect, evidenced by the presence of Joe Graham Horse Camp and Potters Camp near Clackamas Lake.

A network of forest service and BIA roads provides access to prominent topographic landmarks like Buckskin Butte, Wests Butte, and Summit Butte. Natural water sources such as Deadman Spring, Cold Spring, and Willow Springs are scattered throughout the highlands, feeding into creeks like Bunchgrass Creek and Cedar Swamp Creek. The transition from the open Big Meadows to the forested slopes reflects the characteristic geography of the Oregon Cascades.
