2018 Map of Fort Jones

About this map

Fort Jones sits as the central settlement in this high-relief portion of Scott Valley, where the valley floor meets the rising terrain of the Marble Mountains and the Klamath National Forest. The landscape is defined by the northward flow of the Scott River, joined by several tributaries including Kidder Cr and Patterson Cr. The western portion of the map is dominated by the prominent Chaparral Hill, while to the east, a series of steep drainages such as Hamlin Gulch, Hungry Hollow, and Sloans Gulch carve into the ridges. Transportation and local infrastructure are concentrated along the valley edges, evidenced by the Scott Valley Airport and a network of rural routes like Eastside Rd and Cemetery Rd. The transition from agricultural valley lands to the timbered heights of the National Forest is clearly delineated by the township and range boundaries.
