About this map

Umpqua Hot Springs and the hydro-electric developments of the Umpqua River define this mid-century survey of the Calapooya Mountains. The landscape transitions from the Middle Fork Willamette River in the north down to the complex infrastructure of the Toketee Reservoir and Toketee Falls, where several generators and powerhouses are marked.

Resource management and fire suppression in the Willamette National Forest are evident through the presence of the Rigdon Guard Station and high-altitude stations like Balm Lookout and Cinder Prairie Lookout. Local transit and recreation are represented by the Bristow Trail and Pioneer Campground, while remote clearings such as Ranger Prairie and Mountain Meadows speak to the early nomenclature of the Douglas and Lane county borderlands.
