About this map

Santiam Junction State Airport sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape, where the Cascade Range defines a territory of volcanic peaks and alpine lakes. The terrain is dominated by geological features like Nash Crater, Potato Hill, and Hoodoo Butte, which rise above the heavily forested lands of the Willamette National Forest. This modern survey illustrates the extensive network of trails and access roads that pierce the Mount Jefferson Wilderness, connecting remote water bodies such as Duffy Lake and Maxwell Lake.

Tracing the path of the Santiam Wagon Road East Trl provides a connection to the region's historical transit routes, while the North Santiam River serves as the primary drainage for the surrounding basins. The map captures a sophisticated trail system, including the Outer Mountain View Loop Trl and various OHV tracks near Santiam Pass Ohv Atv Trail #33 Trl, reflecting the contemporary use of these public lands for recreation and conservation.
