About this map

Grayback Mountain and the high peaks of the Klamath Mountains define this landscape, where mining history and forest service infrastructure intersect. The map records several notable sites for local history, including the Mountain View Mine and Arnold Mine, which speak to the mineral exploration of the region. Scattered throughout the wilderness are established outposts like Krause Cabin, Denman Cabin, and Kendall Cabin, alongside shelters such as the Sucker Creek Shelter and Grayback Shelter.

Water management and high-elevation hydrology are evident at the Miller Lake Dam, which regulates Miller Lake, while natural features like Bigelow Lakes and Fish Lake sit below the summits of Mount Elijah and Little Craggy Peak. A network of Forest Service roads, such as Nat For Dev RD 1020 and Nat For Dev RD 4611, provides the primary access to remote points like Grizzly Camp and the grassy expanse of Elkhorn Prairie.
