2017 Map of Willow Lake

About this map

Willow Lake serves as a central hydrological feature within the Rogue River National Forest in Jackson County, showing a landscape defined by forest management and drainage systems. This 2017 survey details a network of timber roads like Butte Falls-Fish Lake Rd and Trefren Mill Rd that navigate the high-elevation terrain. Named landmarks such as Bieberstedt Butte and Esmond Mtn provide vertical relief, while the presence of Swamp Cr Reservoir and numerous springs like Shake Camp Spring and Whiskey Spring emphasize the importance of water resources in the Cascades. Local naming conventions are evident in features like Indian Glade and Willow Prairie, offering researchers a look at how this mountain environment was segmented and identified by the Forest Service and early settlers.
