1986 Map of Caribou Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Salmon Mountains and the high alpine terrain of the Trinity Alps converge on this mid-1980s survey of the Siskiyou and Trinity county border. This landscape is defined by its verticality and historical resource extraction, evidenced by the presence of the Yellow Rose Mine and the Dorleska Mine north of Bullards Basin. The map captures a transition between the Klamath, Shasta, and Trinity National Forest, where high-altitude lakes such as Lower Caribou Lake and Caribou Lake are fed by snowmelt from Snowslide Peak and Caribou Mtn. For the local historian, the inclusion of Lakeview Ranch and a small Cem near the northern boundary provides evidence of early settlement patterns in an otherwise wilderness-dominated corridor along the South Fork Salmon River.
