About this map

Seven Lakes Basin anchors this high-elevation landscape in Klamath County, where the alpine geography transitions into the Oregon Desert to the north. The area is defined by its cluster of named waters, including North Lake, Grass Lake, and Cliff Lake, all situated under the watch of Devils Peak and Lee Peak. Seasonal encampments and stops like McKie Camp, Solace Camp, and Lone Wolf suggest a long history of use by travelers and forest workers moving through the backcountry.

The watershed is a complex network of glacial features and volcanic remnants, with the Middle Fork Rogue River and Sevenmile Creek draining the slopes of Mudjekeewis Mountain and Maude Mountain. The naming conventions here are particularly striking, with a string of peaks and features like Venus, Jupiter, Lucifer, and Shale Butte lining the southern reaches, providing a distinct set of landmarks for those navigating this segment of the Cascade Range.
