About this map

Three Fingered Jack stands as the central landmark of this high-elevation terrain where the Willamette National Forest meets the Deschutes National Forest. The landscape is a network of volcanic peaks and alpine lakes, including Suttle Lake, Blue Lake, and Jack Lake, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Cascade Range. This 2014 survey documents the convergence of historic and modern transportation routes at Santiam Pass, where the Santiam Hwy and the legendary Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail intersect.

A notable inclusion for historical researchers is the Old Santiam Wagon Rd, which runs south of Big Lake and north of Hayrick Butte, tracing a path used by early travelers across the mountain divide. The map provides a clear picture of the land management boundaries between Linn, Jefferson, and Deschutes counties, as well as the numerous forest service roads like SW Round Lake Rd that provide access to the backcountry.
