2023 Map of Mount Ashland

About this map

Mt Ashland anchors this modern survey of the rugged heights along the Oregon-California border, where the Siskiyou Mountains divide the landscape. The map details a complex network of recreation and transportation corridors, including the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trl and a specialized cluster of winter routes like the Bull Gap-Nordic Trl and Summit Nordic Trl. These paths wind through the high-elevation terrain of the Rogue River National Forest and Klamath National Forest. At lower elevations to the southeast, the small settlement of Colestin sits near the headwaters of Cottonwood Creek. The geography here is marked by distinct seasonal water features like Chocolate Falls and numerous named drainages such as Bear Gulch and Quartz Creek, reflecting a land shaped by steep relief and protected wilderness within the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument.
