About this map

Surveyor Mountain dominates the high terrain of the Southern Oregon Cascades within the Winema National Forest. This late-twentieth-century landscape is defined by its water management and volcanic geography, featuring a series of catchments including Sheepy Reservoir, Lower Sheepy Reservoir, and Parker Reservoir. The presence of the Cold Spring Historical Monument suggests the enduring importance of water sources in this high-elevation environment, while industrial activity is noted by a Cinder Pit near the northern boundary.

Prominent summits like Surveyor Peak, Kent Peak, and Buck Mountain are connected by a network of forest roads, most notably the Keno Access Road. The map provides detailed documentation of natural drainages such as Johnson Creek and Sheepy Creek, alongside distinct terrain features like the Rock Slide and Cherry Glade. These details offer a clear record of the area's transition between managed timberlands and protected forest interior.
