1998 Map of Figurehead Mountain

About this map

Mohawk Mine sits near the northern boundary of this high-elevation mountain terrain where the Siskiyou National Forest, Rogue River National Forest, and Klamath National Forest converge. This 1990s revision reveals a landscape defined by sharp ridges and deep river drainages at the California-Oregon border, including the Middle Fork Applegate River and the West Fork Applegate River. The map provides a detailed view of remote campsites and structures such as Baileys Cabin, Big Camp, and Sugar Pine Camp, which serve as markers of human activity within the protected Red Buttes Wilderness. High-altitude features like Phantom Meadows, Azalea Lake, and Figurehead Mountain characterize the interior, while named meadows and glades like Fir Glade and Cameron Meadows illustrate the diverse alpine ecology of the region.
