2023 Map of Rock Creek Reservoir

About this map

The Mount Hood National Forest dominates this section of north-central Oregon, where high-country drainage systems meet a complex network of forest trails and water management infrastructure. The landscape is defined by the steep descent of the White River and the White Wild and Scenic River corridor along the southern edge, while the northern portion focuses on the recreational and utility waters of Rock Creek Reservoir and Smarts Reservoir. Near Sportsmans Park, a sophisticated system of manual water diversion is evident through features like the Threemile Ditch and Lost Boulder Ditch, which channel mountain runoff through the timbered slopes. The map also records several specific high points and clearings such as Bus Point, Clear Point, and Smock Prairie, alongside numerous family-named or historic trail routes including the Mccubbins 588 Mineral Jane Trl.
