2011 Map of Magone Lake

About this map

Magone Lake sits as the central landmark of this high-elevation terrain in Grant County, surrounded by a complex network of forest camps and seasonal clearings. These sites, including Huckleberry Camp, Telephone Spring Camp, and Cold Spring Camp, suggest a landscape historically defined by forestry management and seasonal occupation within the national forest system. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by the headwaters of Long Creek, Lake Creek, and the East Fork Beech Creek, which carve through a series of meadows like Flood Meadow and Morrow Meadow. This 2011 survey captures the area at a time when remote outposts like the Herburger Cabin and Porcupine Camp remained significant points of reference for navigation. The presence of numerous named peaks such as Jonas Mountain, Lake Butte, and Nipple Butte provides a framework for understanding the topographic relief that separates these distinct high-country basins.
