1963 Map of Packsaddle Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Three Sisters Wilderness serves as the focal point of this high-altitude survey, straddling the boundary between the Willamette National Forest and the Deschutes National Forest. The landscape is defined by a dense concentration of glacial lakes and volcanic terrain, with Packsaddle Mtn and Little Roundtop Mtn rising above the watershed of Wildcat Creek. The map documents a primitive backcountry infrastructure established for forest management and early recreation, featuring the Mink Lake Shelter and Cliff Lake Shelter situated along a network of historic routes including the Skyline Trail and Mc Bee Way. Named springs such as Bill Gott Spring and Wright Spring indicate essential water sources for travelers in this high-country environment. The intricate naming of small water bodies like Questionmark Lake and Nightshade Lakes reflects the intensive surveying of the Cascade Range's interior during the mid-20th century.
