2001 Map of Hamburg

About this map

Klamath National Forest terrain dominates this survey of the Klamath River corridor in Siskiyou County, where the river carves a deep path through the mountains. The small settlement of Hamburg sits at the confluence where Horse Creek enters the main river, serving as a primary point of interest for local history. The map records several active and historical mineral interests, including Lucky Mine and various unnamed mines and prospects scattered across the steep ridges. Cultural and administrative landmarks like the Horse Creek Cemetery, the Steelhead Ranger Station, and Oak Knoll Scott River provide critical geographic anchors for genealogists and researchers tracing the 20th-century development of this remote canyon. High points such as Johnny O'Neil Ridge and White Cloud Mountain frame the landscape, illustrating the topographical challenges of early settlement and resource extraction in the region.
