About this map

Three Sisters Wilderness and the Deschutes National Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape in the Cascade Range. The terrain is defined by a complex network of waterways, most notably Tumalo Falls and the various forks of Tumalo Creek, which carve through the volcanic topography. To the west, Three Creek Lake sits near the wilderness boundary, while Happy Valley provides a rare level opening among peaks like Triangle Hill and Bearwallows.

Historically, this area is a significant hub for mid-century and modern trail development, evidenced by the high density of named routes. These range from established horse paths like the Tam Mcarthur Rim Horse Trl to specialized winter routes such as the Tumalo Falls Road Nordic Trl. The presence of numerous springs, including Farewell Spring and Jack Pine Spring, highlights the critical role of water management and recreation in this part of the high Cascades.
