About this map

The Klamath River carves through the southern landscape of this region, marked by turbulent Rapids and the steep elevation of the Klamath Rim. The terrain is defined by volcanic features and significant water management, including Tom Reservoir, Ward Reservoir, and Griffith Reservoir. Higher elevations are dominated by Mule Hill 5149 and Mud Spring Mountain 4715, which watch over a network of seasonal drainages like Tom Creek and Hayden Creek.

Evidence of former habitation and early industry is found at Pokegama (Site) and Camp 4 (Site), representing the vanished timber or ranching outposts of the high desert borderlands. Local history is anchored at the Way Cem near the river, while the complex geography of the Oregon and California state line intersects with the Klamath Co and Siskiyou Co borders, illustrating the administrative complexity of these forest lands within the Klamath Nat For.
