1997 Map of Saddleblanket Mountain

About this map

Willamette National Forest encompasses this heavily timbered region of Lane County, where steep drainages and mountain peaks dominate the landscape. The Saddleblanket Mountain Lookout stands as a primary landmark above a complex network of waterways, including Fall Creek and the many branches of Winberry Creek. Evidence of industrial use is found in scattered Quarry sites throughout the hills, while recreational development is marked by the Johnny Creek Nature Trail and the Recreation Trail winding through the Clark Creek area. Smaller navigational aids like the Little Blanket Shelter and significant water features such as Chichester Falls and Big Pool highlight the intersection of backcountry utility and natural geography in the late twentieth century.
