1984 Map of Iron Gate Reservoir

About this map

Iron Gate Reservoir dominates this Siskiyou County landscape, a central water body created by the Iron Gate Dam along the Klamath River. The 1980s terrain shows a developed recreational and resource management infrastructure, including the Iron Gate Fish Hatchery and several access points like Mirror Cove and Juniper Point. To the north, Camp Creek Campground and Wanaka Spring mark points of local interest among the complex gulches and ridges. The southwestern corner reveals the passage of the Southern Pacific railroad line through the river valley, where local roads such as Ager Road and Hornbrook Road converge. Significant drainages like Bogus Creek and Jenny Creek feed into the reservoir system, illustrating the watershed's role in local irrigation and power generation during this era.
