The Infernal Caverns Battleground Memorial Monument stands as a focal point in this Modoc County landscape, marking the site of a 1867 conflict between the U.S. Army and local tribes. The geography is defined by a sharp contrast between the jagged breaks of Crooks Canyon and the valley floor where the South Fork Pit River has been extensively channeled. To the south, the Infernal Caverns themselves are situated near a small cluster of Graves, reflecting the area's difficult history.
