1894 Map of Klamath

About this map

Ft. Klamath and the Klamath Agency serve as primary anchors for this late-nineteenth-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by expansive wetlands and volcanic peaks before modern water management significantly altered the basin. The map traces the intricate water systems of the Williamson River and Sprague River, documenting the early footprint of the Klamath Reservation including the Yainax Agency. These government outposts and early settlements like Linkville—the future Klamath Falls—demonstrate the emerging crossroads of southern Oregon near the Oregon California Boundary Line.
