2023 Map of Oregon Caves

About this map

Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve anchors the northeast corner of this map, protecting a subterranean landscape beneath the high ridges of the Siskiyou Mountains. The terrain is defined by extreme relief, where the River Styx Wild and Scenic River and Sucker Creek carve through deep gulches and canyons. Named flats like California Bar, Serpentine Flat, and Portuguese Flat hint at the area's human history, while the southern reaches extend into the Red Buttes Wilderness. High-elevation landmarks such as Mt Elijah and Whiskers Peak overlook a network of alpine waters including Bolan Lake and Tanner Lake. This modern survey details the intricate road and trail systems, including the Limestone Trl and Lake Mountain Trl, that provide access to these protected lands within the broader Siskiyou National Forest.
