1989 Map of Mount Peavine

About this map

Mount Peavine towers over a landscape defined by its deep mining heritage and rugged drainage networks within the Siskiyou National Forest. During the late 1980s, this area remained a focal point for resource extraction, evidenced by numerous workings such as the Sugar Pine Mine, Victor Mine, and Gold Plate Mine. The terrain is deeply incised by the North Fork Galice Creek and South Fork Galice Creek, with landmarks like Hansen Saddle and Peggler Butte providing vantage points over the complex gulches. Historical occupation is marked by scattered locations like Soldier Camp and Sourgrass Camp, while the presence of a Lookout Tower on the peak of Peavine indicates the ongoing importance of fire observation. The southern portion of the map traces the Silver Creek corridor and the high ground of Cedar Mountain, illustrating the remote and specialized nature of this timber and mineral-producing region.
