1993 Map of Medicine Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

Medicine Lake sits at the heart of a complex volcanic landscape where the borders of the Klamath National Forest, Modoc National Forest, and Shasta National Forest converge. This 1993 revision documents a terrain defined by obsidian and basalt, featuring the massive Glass Mountain and the Medicine Lake Glass Flow. The presence of geothermal wells and the Burnt Lava Flow Geologic Area emphasizes the area's ongoing geologic activity. Away from the water, the map reveals curiosity-inducing landmarks like the Undertakers Camp (Site) near Paynes Springs and the Yellowjacket Ice Cave near Yellowjacket Butte. The drainage patterns are equally distinct, with Arnica Sink collecting runoff in a region dominated by high peaks such as Mount Hoffman and Medicine Mountain.
