About this map

Grass Lake dominates the southern portion of this Siskiyou County landscape, situated within the extensive boundaries of the Klamath National Forest. The area is defined by significant topographical elevations, including Miller Mtn and Herd Peak to the southwest, and the prominent peak of Goosenest in the northwest. This high-altitude terrain is marked by a network of drainage systems and springs, such as Bearwallow Spring and Dairy Cr, which feed into the central basin.

Transportation through this forest landscape relies on a mix of established fire roads and recreational paths. Significant routes like the Goosenest Trl and the Deer Mtn Long Loop Trl provide access to the ridges, while the Grass Lake Fire Rd and Grass Ln connect the low-lying wetlands to the surrounding peaks. The map reflects a modern management of forest resources and conservation, balancing the preservation of features like Bull Meadow with the infrastructure required for forest service operations and public access.
