About this map

The Sixes River and its major tributaries, including the South Fork Sixes River, dominate this section of the Siskiyou National Forest. This remote landscape in Curry County is defined by a series of high prairies and prominent peaks, such as Mount Butler, China Peak, and Mount Avery. The drainage pattern is complex, with numerous named creeks like Edson Creek and Elephant Rock Creek carving through the terrain.

Evidence of local activity is centered around the Sixes River corridor, where the Inman Mine and settlements like Plum Trees and Taylor Ranch are located. Access is provided by a network of forest roads, including Sixes River Rd and Moore Mill Rd. Distinctive natural landmarks such as Elephant Rock, Hells Gate, and the Elk Wallows reflect the wild character of the region as it was documented in 2011.
