1954 Map of Oregon Caves

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Oregon Caves National Monument serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, showcasing the subterranean geography and surrounding high-country terrain of the Siskiyou Mountains. The settlement of Williams sits at the northeast corner of the sheet, where Williams Creek and its many tributaries like Bamboo Gl and Baltimore Creek support a landscape of early resource extraction and rural life. Traces of the region's prospecting history are visible through the Watts Mines, Yeager Mine, and the Gold Pan Placer Mine, while the Bristol Quarry indicates the ongoing industrial importance of the area's geology.
