1956 Map of Sardine Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Oakridge and Westfir anchor the southwestern corner of this survey, situated at the confluence where the Middle Fork Willamette River meets Salmon Creek. The landscape is dominated by the dense drainage networks of the Willamette National Forest, where steep ridges like Bunchgrass Ridge and Indian Ridge separate the many tributaries of Christy Creek and Fall Creek. Human activity is marked by scattered infrastructure supporting the timber and mining industries of the mid-1950s, including the Ironside Mine near the center of the sheet and several high-elevation outposts such as Gold Point Lookout and Highland Cabin. Genealogists may find interest in the Forestvale Cemetery located near the river, while researchers of forest history can trace the network of guard stations including Flat Creek Guard Sta and Martie Creek Guard Station that once monitored these timberlands before modern automation.
