1998 Map of Hobson Horn

About this map

The Siskiyou National Forest dominates this late-twentieth-century landscape, capturing the complex drainage systems of the Southern Oregon coast range. The map reveals a wild network of waterways, where Shasta Costa Creek and Indigo Creek carve through steep topography defined by Shasta Ridge and Brandy Peak. A notable modern insertion into this remote terrain is the Hobson Horn Communication Facility, signaling the technological infrastructure required for fire management and regional communications in the 1990s. The presence of the Hellgate Back Country Byway highlights the area's transition toward recreational management, providing access to landmarks like Montana Spring. This document serves as a detailed record of the borderlands between Curry and Josephine counties just before the turn of the millennium.
