1968 Map of Tea Table Mtn

About this map

Tea Table Mountain rises as a central landmark within this portion of the Winema National Forest as it appeared in the late 1960s. The landscape is defined by a dense network of water sources and meadows, indicating a high-elevation environment where seasonal water management was critical. To the north, Jamison Ranch and Jamison Meadow suggest a history of localized grazing or homesteading, supported by Jack Creek and Rock Creek. These features, along with names like The Rhubarb Patch and Jackies Thicket, reflect a vernacular geography tied to early settlers and forest users. Remote outposts such as Riders Camp and Lily Camp are connected by forest roads, providing access to spring sites including Huckleberry Spring, Cleary Spring, and the curiously named Yellow Jacket Spring. The presence of Jack O'Conner Meadow and Stimson Meadow further illustrates how this timber and range land was partitioned and utilized during the mid-20th century.
