About this map

The Siskiyou National Forest dominates this high-elevation terrain along the border of Josephine and Curry Counties. This remote landscape is defined by its prominent summits and ridges, including Brandy Peak, Fish Hook Peak, and Squirrel Peak. The drainage patterns here are complex, with waters flowing through the Shasta Costa Cr in the north and the Indigo Cr system to the south, including the N Fork Indigo Cr and E Fork Indigo Cr.

Notably, the map identifies several distinct clearings and landmarks such as Whitten Prairie, Indigo Prairie, and Indian Flat, which offer rare breaks in the forested canopy. Local landmarks like Hardscrabble and Sugarloaf Mtn provide fixed points for navigating the steep grades along Bearcamp Ridge and Burnt Ridge. The inclusion of the Fish Hook Interpretive trail area indicates a managed interface between the wilderness and public recreation during this era.
