1998 Map of Gordon Lake

About this map

The Williamson River valley defines this high-elevation landscape in Klamath County, winding through the Winema National Forest as it appeared in the late 1990s. The map illustrates a transitional zone where ranching outposts like Hoyt Ranch and Royce Ranch meet the volcanic slopes of Yamsay Mountain and Little Yamsay Mountain. The river's path is monitored by a Gaging Station south of its confluence with Jackson Creek, while the surrounding terrain is marked by numerous water sources including Asher Creek and various unnamed Springs. Human activity in the area is characterized by a mix of recreation and resource use, from the Ski Trail on the western ridges to the Cinder Pit located north of Gordon Lake.
