1968 Map of Antelope Mtn

About this map

Antelope Mountain dominates this high-country landscape within the Fremont National Forest, straddling the border of Klamath and Lake counties. This late-1960s survey documents a region defined by water management and resource extraction in the high desert, evidenced by the presence of a Cinder Pit and a network of remote water sources. Names like Tobin Cabin and Tobin Spring suggest early pioneer or ranching activity, while several points such as Timothy Well (Dry), Matts Well, and Glades Well highlight the critical nature of water security in this arid environment. The map details the transition from the timbered slopes of Timothy Butte down to the open expanse of Antelope Flat, providing a clear record of the forest boundaries and unimproved roads as they existed before modern developments reached this corner of Oregon.
