2018 Map of Figurehead Mountain

About this map

Rogue River National Forest and Klamath National Forest meet at the crest of the Siskiyou Mountains, where high-elevation landmarks like Figurehead Mtn and Pyramid Peak define the border between California and Oregon. This landscape is a complex network of drainage basins, with the Middle Fork Applegate River and Butte Fork carving through deep gulches and flats like Bee Flat and Applegate Flat. The map documents a rugged wilderness characterized by scattered high-mountain lakes, including Azalea Lake, Snake Lake, and Lonesome Lake, which are linked by the Azalea Lake Trail. For those interested in the geographic history of the Pacific Northwest, the map shows several meadows and glades, such as Phantom Meadows, Cameron Meadows, and Fir Glade, reflecting the traditional naming of distinct clearings in this densely forested terrain.
