1997 Map of Westfir West

About this map

Willamette National Forest encompasses the majority of this landscape, where the Middle Fork Willamette River carves a deep valley through the Cascades. The 1990s terrain is dominated by steep ridges and peaks such as Tire Mountain and Patterson Mountain, separated by drainage systems like South Fork Winberry Creek and Deception Creek. In the northwest, the map captures the upper reach of Lookout Point Lake near the small settlement of Hampton. To the southeast, the town of Westfir sits at the confluence of the river and Northern railroad line, marked by its corporate boundary and a nearby Mobile Home Park. This survey provides a precise look at the forest's infrastructure during the late twentieth century, including the Oakridge Airport on the southern edge and isolated structures like the Lone Wolf Shelter and Prairie Camp Shelter tucked away in the high country.
