About this map

Timothy Lake and the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail dominate the southern and eastern landscape of this high-elevation area in the Mt Hood National Forest. Revised by the USDA Forest Service in the late 1990s, the map illustrates a complex network of forest management and recreation. The Salmon River winds through the northern sections, passing through the protected Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness.

Evidence of historical land use is visible in the named burn areas like Abbott Burn and Sherar Burn, while industrial activity is noted at the Frying Pan Quarry and Basin Point Quarry. Numerous high-altitude water bodies, including Frying Pan Lake and Anvil Lake, are tucked between prominent summits such as Wolf Peak and Wolf Camp Butte. This survey provides a precise record of trail alignments and access points, including Meditation Point, during a period of transition in national forest recreation and conservation.
