1957 Map of Chiloquin

About this map

Chiloquin sits at the confluence of the Sprague River and Williamson River, serving as a central hub for the Klamath Indian Reservation in the late 1950s. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the wetlands of Agency Lake and the Upper Klamath National Wildlife Refuge to the high timbered country of Solomon Butte and Sun Mtn. This era shows a community deeply tied to both the land and the rail, with the Southern Pacific railroad threading through the river valleys to reach timber and agricultural points like Braymill and Kirk.
