About this map

Waldo and Takilma stand as the primary hubs in the southern reach of this survey, reflecting the early 20th-century mining economy of southwestern Oregon. This area of the Siskiyou National Forest is defined by a dense network of mineral extraction sites, including the Queen of Bronze Mine, Cowboy Mine, and Eureka Mine. The Illinois River and its numerous tributaries, such as Rough and Ready Creek, carve through the terrain, providing the water necessary for the hydraulic operations common during this period.
