About this map

Copco Lake dominates the northern landscape of this Siskiyou County survey, where the Klamath River flows through a complex terrain of canyons and peaks. The settlement of Copco sits at the western edge of the reservoir, serving as a focal point in a region defined by its hydro-electric history and timber resources. The map captures a high-elevation environment within the Klamath National Forest, marked by the sharp rise of the Klamath Rim to the north and prominent landmarks like Sloan Butte and Bloomingcamp Peak.

Resource-related features such as Frame Mill Spring and Windmill Point suggest early land use patterns, while the network of mountain roads like Ager Beswick Rd and Copco Rd connect the remote gulches and glades. The eastern portion is particularly varied, featuring Surveyors Glade and Lennox Rock, providing an intricate look at the topography before later environmental restoration projects began to alter the river's path.
