About this map

The Siskiyou Mountains along the Oregon California border define this high-altitude landscape where the Rogue River National Forest and Klamath National Forest meet. The terrain is marked by prominent summits such as Dutchman Peak and Observation Peak, connected by a network of high ridges like Elliott Creek Ridge and Yellowjacket Ridge. This modern survey documents a preserved wilderness character, traced by the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it winds past Donomore Peak and across the Observation Gap.

Scattered meadows and glades, including Sally Glade, Asp Glade, and Kettle Belly Glade, offer clearings within the dense forest. The map records a complex drainage system feeding into the Silver Fork and Squaw Creek. This geography reflects a history of high-country land use, from the primitive roads like Waters Gulch Rd to the natural springs like Sulphur Spring and Woodpecker Spring that have long served travelers in these borderlands.
