2020 Map of Wahtum Lake

About this map

Wahtum Lake sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape within the Mount Hood National Forest, serving as a focal point for a complex network of drainage and ridgelines. The topography is defined by significant volcanic features and dramatic drops, notably where the Eagle Creek canyon creates a path for landmarks like Tunnel Falls. This 2020 survey illustrates the modern intersection of natural preservation and recreation, tracing the extensive path of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it winds through the Benson Plateau and crosses over Chinidere Mtn.
