About this map

Soosap Peak stands as a prominent topographical mark in this stretch of the Oregon Cascades, where the headwaters of the South Fork Clackamas River and North Fork Molalla River begin their descent. The landscape is defined by a dense network of forest service roads, including Williams Lake Rd and Timothy Patch Rd, which provide access to high-elevation points and remote water bodies. The presence of High Camp Lookout and named sites like Timothy Patch and High Camp reflects the region's long-standing management by the U.S. Forest Service.

Water features are abundant throughout the drainages, from the secluded Emerald Lake and Cougar Lake to the steep relief of Rock Canyon. Small outposts such as Hunters Camp near Hunter Creek illustrate the recreational and utilitarian use of these woods. This survey documents the specific road designations and trail-accessible landmarks that characterize the Clackamas County backcountry in the early twenty-first century.
