1963 Map of Wickiup Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Wickiup Dam and the expansive Wickiup Reservoir dominate this central Oregon landscape, a crucial water management project on the upper Deschutes River. Surveyed in the early 1960s with 1980s updates, the map highlights the managed hydrology of the Deschutes National Forest, where the reservoir's Spillway Elevation 4338 is carefully noted. This area is characterized by a series of volcanic peaks, including Wickiup Butte, Haner Butte, and Wright Butte, interspersed with meadows and forests. The mapping reflects the recreational and scientific value of the land, detailing numerous sites like Bull Bend Campground and Wyeth Campground, as well as the specialized boundaries of the Pringle Falls Experimental Forest. A network of Jeep Trails and primitive roads provides access to these timbered reaches, while the river's winding path through Dilman Meadows illustrates the transition from high-country streams to managed waterways.
