About this map

Sugarloaf Mountain and Brandy Peak dominate the high ridges of this landscape within the Siskiyou National Forest. The map documents a rugged timber and watershed area during the late 1990s, defined by a complex network of forest roads and 4WD tracks that follow the natural contours of High Ridge and Burnt Ridge. These paths connect remote high-elevation clearings such as Whitten Prairie and Indigo Prairie, which stand out against the steep drainages of the Shasta Costa Creek and the Indigo Creek system.

Evidence of resource extraction is minimal but present, including a Quarry located near the headwaters of the North Fork Indigo Creek. The northwestern corner transitions into the protected Wild Rogue Wilderness, where the Wild Rogue Wilderness Byway provides access to the Hellgate Country. The boundary between Curry and Josephine counties is clearly delineated as it traverses the southeast, following the divide near Indigo Creek East Fork.
