2011 Map of Saddleblanket Mountain

About this map

Fall Creek and its many tributaries, including Slick Creek and Bedrock Creek, carve a complex drainage pattern through this part of the Cascades in Lane County. The landscape is defined by high points such as Saddleblanket Mountain, Winberry Mountain, and Station Butte, which overlook a dense network of forest roads and hiking corridors. Human presence is centered on recreational and resource management sites like the Clark Creek Group Camp and the Little Blanket Shelter located near the headwaters of Traverse Creek. This map illustrates the transition from the lower valley reaches of Big Fall Creek Rd into the steeper timberlands where Timber Butte and Clark Butte stand as prominent landmarks. The intricate network of smaller streams, such as Minnehaha Creek and Monterica Creek, highlights the importance of watershed geography in this part of the Oregon backcountry.
