Dunn Forest & Environs Map
About the Dunn Forest & Environs Map
The OSU Department of Forestry has published a map for Dunn Forest and two maps of McDonald Forest. The limitations of these maps are that they do not show roads and trails on land owned by adjacent property owners. The map below features routes that connect McDonald Forest with Dunn Forest through Starker Forests Soap Creek Tree Farm (for which a free permit is required).
This map shows roads on land that is closed to public access. The author of this website encourages compliance with the policies of private landowners and federal, state, and local laws including those prohibiting trespassing. Please refer to the terms of use for this website for more information.
You can download a high resolution image of this map for printing.
