About this map

The McKenzie River corridor anchors this portion of the Cascade Range, where the small settlement of Nimrod sits along the northern riverbank. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape heavily defined by its transition from the river valley into the high timberlands of the Willamette National Forest. The map documents the intricate drainage systems that feed the McKenzie, including East Fork Deer Creek and West Fork Deer Creek, as they descend from prominent peaks such as Pernot Mtn and Gibraltar Mtn.

Tracing the southern half of the sheet, the terrain rises toward Nimrod Butte and the watershed divide for Little Fall Creek. The topography here is characterized by high, narrow ridges like Symbol Ridge and William's Ridge, which overlook a network of seasonal and perennial streams. Local infrastructure remains concentrated along the river valley via Goodpasture Rd, serving as the primary access point for the surrounding forest lands.
