About this map

Klamath National Forest dominates this northern California landscape, where the volcanic topography of Orr Mountain and East Jerome Butte rises above high-elevation basins. The settlement of Bray serves as a focal point near the southern boundary, situated along Butte Creek in an area shaped by the historical movement of timber and cattle. Evidence of former industrial activity is preserved in the Old Railroad Grade and a Borrow Pit, showing how transportation networks once navigated the uneven terrain between Round Valley and the Red Rock Valley.

Water management is prominent throughout the quadrangle, from the Spillway Gate and Orr Lake to the natural drainage of Antelope Creek and Antelope Sink. Small outposts such as Kegg and Leaf appear alongside infrastructure like a Corral and Cave, providing a detailed look at the rural character of Siskiyou County during the late 1980s. Recreation is noted at Shatter Campground, tucked away in the forest north of the volcanic peaks.
