Captain Jacks Stronghold and the surrounding volcanic landscape of Northern California define this modern survey of the Modoc Plateau. The map provides a contemporary record of significant cultural and historical sites, including Gillems Camp and Canby Cross, situated near the southern edge of Tule Lake. The terrain is marked by distinctive geological formations such as the Schonchin Flow, Ross Flow, and the appropriately named Devils Homestead. Local history researchers will find several family-named landmarks and historical sites documented, from the Fleener Place to the jagged elevations of Gillem Bluff and Sheep Camp Butte. The presence of features like Gold Digge Pass and Ross Chimneys highlights the unique topography and frontier legacy of this portion of Siskiyou County.
