About this map

The Klamath River winds through the southwestern corner of this survey, defining a landscape where the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation boundary meets the heavy timber of the Six Rivers National Forest. This 1990s revision details the hub of Klamath Glen, showing its vital riverfront infrastructure including a Boat Ramp, Fire Station, and the Klamath Station forestry office. The geography is characterized by sharp transitions from river flats like Starwein Flat to the high elevations of Rattlesnake Mountain and South Red Mountain.

Loggers and land managers would note the network of private roads and the Lookout Red Mountain Communication Facilities standing watch over the drainages of Turwar Creek and Goose Creek. Historical extraction is hinted at by Prospects located near the northern border, while the eastern half of the map is dominated by the Smith River National Recreation Area, protecting the pristine waters of the Smith River and its various forks.
