There is a barely funded museum overlooking the river. I found one to look at there. Maybe two. 1945. About ten years ago. I don't know if it is still there or not.

 

I think I saw some at U of O map room.

That would be the Museum of the Oregon Territory. Since its close to me I'll go ask today.

Other than that ask old probably retired forest service types. Unfortunately we could never find the one that one relative was known to have while alive. Someone active in the service might still have one as well.

Maybe this discussion could use its own thread.

Yes Don, it is the Old Baldy Trail.  You're a few miles off on the exact location. I was just a little northwest of the junction with the Eagle Creek Trail. There were some old timbers arranged in a triangular pattern in this small clearing. Maybe they were a visual reference for an aerial survey? Confused

 

So I take it, it is my turn to post a photo or are we into exact locations or GPS coordinates inorder to be right. I know you guys are off on a tangent on these "Fire Maps" , but that is all good, so start a new string or thread and be on with it. We are on the  "What Trail am I on?" thread. So here is one:

I did some transmogrification on that picture and I still do not recognize it. You can see some more details that might help someone who actually has been there.

I should have mentioned that it is a current trail and is not in a wilderness area., and that I stepped off the trail to get a clear view of the mountain.
