1992 Map of Wolf Mountain

About this map

Wolf Mountain Lookout stands as the high sentinel over this high-elevation landscape within the Ochoco National Forest, where the intersection of Wheeler, Grant, and Crook counties meet. The map reveals a complex water management and trail system designed for forest utility and wilderness access in the early 1990s. Numerous water catchments like Kelsey Reservoir, South Prong Reservoir, and Squaw Creek Reservoir are scattered across the ridges to support local resource needs. The northern portion is dominated by the Black Canyon Wilderness, a roadless area defined by steep drainages like Black Canyon Creek and Lost Cabin Creek. Historically significant access routes, including the Black Canyon Trail and Owl Cr Trail, trace the difficult terrain, connecting points of interest such as Humphreys Camp and Honeymoon Basin.
