1989 Map of Ophir Mountain

About this map

Siskiyou National Forest dominates this 1980s landscape at the boundary of Coos and Curry Counties, characterized by the steep drainage basins of the Elk River and Boulder Creek. The map documents a rugged timber and mining wilderness where peaks like Iron Mountain and Ophir Mountain overlook deep interior valleys. This era shows the infrastructure of forest management and early recreation, with established sites such as Laird Lake Campground and remote outposts like Toast Camp and McCurdy Camp.
