About this map

Substitute Point stands as a prominent landmark within the Willamette National Forest, surrounded by a dense network of glacial lakes and mountain drainages. The landscape is defined by its water systems, including the headwaters of Louise Creek and the southern flow of Horse Creek. High-elevation features like Foley Ridge and Buck Meadows suggest a terrain traditionally used for seasonal grazing or wilderness navigation.

This high Cascades environment is dotted with numerous small water bodies such as Tokatee Lakes, Square Lake, and the tiered Middle Horse Lake and Lower Horse Lake. The inclusion of Honey Creek Falls and the secluded Moonlight Lake highlights the intricate hydrology of the Cascade Range. This survey offers a precise record of these natural features and forest boundaries as they existed in the early twenty-first century, useful for tracing changes in forest cover and watershed health.
