1956 Map of Calimus Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The high plateau of the Klamath Indian Reservation defines this mid-century landscape, where rugged timberlands meet the winding watercourse of the Sprague River. This 1956 survey records a transition from high-desert wilderness to scattered ranching outposts along the river valley floor. The northern sections are dominated by prominent volcanic landforms like Calimus Butte, while the south reveals the agricultural footprint of the McCready Ranch and the decaying structures of Ray Ranch (Ruins). This map provides an essential record of the reservation's geography and the network of old logging grades and forest roads that serviced the timber industry before significant modern development altered the area's isolation.
