About this map

Olallie Butte rises as the dominant landmark in this high-elevation landscape within the Cascade Range. The map reveals an intricate network of alpine hydrology, where the headwaters of the Clackamas River and Olallie Creek originate. Numerous small water bodies such as Si Lake, Surprise Lake, and the cluster of Gifford Lakes are scattered across the terrain, indicating a complex glacial or volcanic geography.

Forested ridges and summits like Potato Butte, Pyramid Butte, and Campbell Butte define the topography, while the Breitenbush Cascades View Point offers a specific location for observing the surrounding wilderness. The presence of Olallie Meadow and various springs, including Wolf Spring and Cub Spring, suggests a delicate ecosystem. Forest service roads like NFD 4220 Rd provide the primary access through this remote portion of Marion County.
