1968 Map of Collins Rim

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Collins Rim dominates this high-desert landscape in Lake County, where scattered outposts like Collins Cabin and Mate Cabin suggest a history of seasonal ranching and line riding. The 1968 survey reveals a network of water sources vital for livestock and survival, ranging from Pope Spring and Dismal Spring to the larger Big Lake in the north. The southwestern portion is occupied by the timbered slopes of the Fremont National Forest, providing a sharp contrast to the open expanse of Big Valley. In the rugged terrain between Round Mountain and the rim, drainage systems like Fifteenmile Creek and Long Canyon carve through the plateau. A solitary Jeep Trail provides the primary access through these remote reaches, connecting isolated camps such as Barley Camp and Frakes Cabin across the high Oregon backcountry.
