1985 Map of Three Lynx

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Three Lynx stands as the primary human outpost along the steep canyon walls of the Clackamas River in this mid-1980s provisional survey. The landscape is dominated by the dense drainage networks of the Mt Hood National Forest, where the Roaring River and South Fork Eagle Creek carve through the timberlands. This map reveals a specialized recreation and resource-extraction economy, evidenced by several remote campsites like Sunstrip Campground and Lookout Springs Campground interspersed with active Quarry and Gravel Pit sites. High-altitude features such as Squaw Mtn and Sheepshead Rock overlook a series of alpine waters, including Squaw Lakes and Shining Lake WL 3893T. For the local historian, the map details the precise alignment of the Indian Ridge Tr and the confluence of several family-named tributaries like Murphy Creek and Morse Creek, which illustrate the complex topography of the Oregon Cascades during this era.
