2017 Map of Rustler Peak

About this map

Rustler Peak dominates the northern skyline of this terrain, marking the boundary where the Rogue River National Forest meets the Winema National Forest. The landscape is defined by its complex drainage network, where the S Fork Rogue River flows near the border of Jackson and Klamath counties. High-elevation openings like Parker Meadows and Stanley Meadows suggest a history of seasonal use and grazing, while the numerous springs such as Dole Spring and Onion Spring provide vital water sources across the volcanic topography. A series of forest roads, including Parker Meadows Rd and Titanic Creek Rd, provide access to points of interest like Snowshoe Butte and the McKee Lake basin. This survey documents the intersection of timber management and natural hydrology, capturing the character of the Southern Cascades' high country during the early twenty-first century.
