2014 Map of Military Crossing

About this map

Military Crossing marks a key focal point in this portion of Klamath County, where the historic Military Rd intersects the high desert and forest transition of the Winema National Forest. The landscape is defined by the wandering path of the Williamson River and its tributaries, including Big Springs Creek, which flow through a region of distinct volcanic and fluvial features. Notable landmarks such as The Peninsula, Windmill Point, and Rocky Point suggest a topography of ancient basalt flows and lake margins, while the presence of the Kittredge Canal indicates the region's managed water systems. To the southeast, the terrain rises toward Wildhorse Ridge and Skellock Draw, where industrial activity is noted at the Skellock Pit. This 2014 survey documents the modern road network, including Silver Lake Rd and Three Creeks Rd, as they navigate this sparsely populated timber and ranching country.
