About this map

Tamolitch Falls and the upper reaches of the Mc Kenzie River anchor this late-twentieth-century study of the Willamette National Forest. The landscape is defined by hydroelectric development and recreational infrastructure, featuring a chain of three distinct water bodies: Carmen Reservoir, Smith Reservoir, and Trail Bridge Reservoir. These man-made features are connected by the river's flow and a network of technical sites like the Gaging Station and various tunnels.

Outdoor heritage is central to this area, as seen in the route of the Mc Kenzie River National Recreation Trail and established sites like Trail Bridge Campground and Olallie Campground. Evidence of local industry appears at the Quarry tucked near Fritz Creek. The terrain rises toward high points such as Bunchgrass Mtn and Wildcat Mtn, while the Linn Co Lane Co boundary line traces through the southern timberlands.
