2017 Map of Nimrod

About this map

The McKenzie River flows through the northern reaches of this territory, where the small settlement of Nimrod sits along Highway 126. This corridor represents the primary point of access into the heavily timbered lands of the Willamette National Forest, which covers the majority of the landscape. The geography is defined by a series of prominent ridges and peaks, including Marten Ridge, Nimrod Butte, and Gibraltar Mtn, all situated within the Cascade Range. The intricate network of drainage is visible through numerous named waterways like Quartz Cr, Silver Cr, and W Fork Deer Cr. A system of specialized forest routes, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 1831 RD, provides a window into the management and accessibility of these public lands during the early 21st century.
