2023 Map of Potters Ponds

About this map

Potters Ponds and the surrounding high plateau of Jefferson County are captured in this modern survey, showcasing a landscape defined by sharp canyons and seasonal drainages. The northern reaches are characterized by Mill Creek Flat and the headwaters of Mill Creek, while the southern terrain breaks into the steep drainages of Shiitike Creek and the deep incision of Wolford Canyon. This area, marking the boundary between Wasco and Jefferson counties, is crisscrossed by a dense network of forestry and access roads like Co Line Rd and NW Upper Crossing Rd, illustrating the modern management of these timberlands. The hydrography of the region is further detailed by named features such as Middle Creek, Boulder Creek, and the isolated Seymore Springs, providing critical landmarks for those navigating the high country.
