About this map

Winema National Forest encompasses the entirety of this landscape, where the Williamson River meanders through the northwestern corner. The terrain is defined by a series of flats and meadows, such as Solomon Flat, Whitehouse Flat, and Yoss Creek Meadow, which suggest a hydrology of seasonal saturation and grazing potential. Significant landmarks include Wocus Butte and its smaller counterpart, Little Wocus Butte, situated near the indentation of Little Wocus Bay.

Water sources are numerous throughout the timbered highlands, with named points like John Cole Spring, Wocus Butte Spring, and Recovery Spring providing critical locations for local history and resource management. The southeastern reaches are punctuated by Lucky Reservoir and the headwaters of Hog Cr, while Kirk RD provides one of the few primary access routes through this protected wilderness. The arrangement of these features illustrates the high-altitude ecosystem of the eastern Cascades.
