2011 Map of Thousand Springs

About this map

Thousand Springs and the surrounding network of mountain drainages define this high-elevation landscape in the southern Oregon Cascades. The 2011 survey reveals an intricate web of timber and forest service routes, including the Thousand Springs Rd and the Crater Creek Motorway Rd, which navigate the complex hydrology of the region. Numerous creeks like Castle Creek, Whisky Creek, and Union Creek descend through the terrain, punctuated by small outposts such as Sunday Camp and Wagon Camp. The map provides a look at the hydrographic profile of the area near the Crater Lake boundary, where features like Spruce Lake and Crater Springs sit amidst a heavily dissected landscape of ridges and glacial-carved valleys, illustrating the transition between high peaks and the lower forest zones.
