Benson Plateau and the high ridges of the Waucoma Ridge dominate this section of the Columbia Wilderness as it appeared in the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by the steep drainage basins of Herman Creek and Eagle Creek, where numerous falls occur, including the notable Tunnel Falls. This survey documents the intersection of high-elevation recreation and resource management, showing the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winding past Chinidere Mtn and Wahtum Lake. While much of the area is protected within the Mount Hood National Forest, evidence of utility and transport remains in the form of multiple 4wd tracks and the Bull Run Watershed Management Area boundary. Key landmarks for hikers and historians include the Indian Springs Campground and distinctive geological formations like Indianhead Rock and Sawtooth Mountain.
