About this map

Swamp Mountain and the high elevations of Green Mountain Ridge dominate this section of the Cascade Range foothills in eastern Linn County. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the North Fork Calapooia River in the south and the winding Wiley Creek to the west. High-altitude infrastructure is represented by the Green Mountain Lookout Tower, a critical point for forest fire observation overlooking the surrounding timberlands.

Transportation through this drainage-heavy terrain is limited to forest access roads such as Wiley Mountain Rd and NFD Road 200, which navigate the steep topography between peaks like Doe Mountain. The map detail reveals numerous named tributaries, such as the curiously titled Flimflam Creek and Cul de Sac Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology that feeds the Willamette Valley’s eastern watershed.
