2017 Map of The Twins

About this map

The Twins and Maiden Peak dominate the high-elevation terrain along the boundary between Lane Co and Deschutes Co in 2017. This section of the Cascade Range is defined by volcanic features and alpine lakes, managed as part of the Willamette National Forest and Deschutes National Forest. A complex network of trails and unimproved roads, including the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail and the Metolius-Windigo route, connects the peaks to remote water bodies like Charlton Lake, Bobby Lake, and Johnny Lake. The map reveals the open hydrology of the region through landmarks such as Round Meadow and Poverty Meadows, which sit among the headwaters of Moore Creek. This survey captures the wilderness character of the crest before recent forest management changes, detailing the specific routes like the Maiden Peak Loop and Waldo Snowmobile trail that navigate the timbered slopes and cinder cones.
