2018 Map of Dutch Creek

About this map

The Siskiyou Mountains dominate this high-elevation terrain along the California-Oregon border, where the Klamath National Forest and Rogue River National Forest meet. This survey documents the winding path of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it traverses ridges between peaks like Copper Butte, Black Mtn, and White Mtn. The hydrology of the region is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Dutch Cr, W Fork Horse Cr, and Middle Cr, which drain the steep slopes and numerous gulches. For those studying local land use, the map identifies specific high-country landmarks such as Slaughter House Flat, Onion Flat, and the Reeves Ranch Springs, alongside timber access routes like the Dogget-Middle Rd. The elevation profile is particularly sharp at Mid Creek Ridge and the transition through Seiad Low Gap.
