1978 Map of Orleans

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Klamath River carves through the heart of the Six Rivers National Forest in this topography, framing the small settlement of Orleans. The map documents a landscape defined by both resource extraction and remote homesteading, featuring the Peach Creek Mine, Bonda Mine, and extensive Dredge Tailings along the riverbanks. Aviation access is provided by the Anderson Airstrip near the river, while the local infrastructure includes the H E Beck Jr Memorial Br. Family-named sites like the Reece Homestead, Hunter Little Ranch, and Short Ranch indicate the scattered nature of rural habitation in the Klamath Mountains during the late twentieth century. Diverse tributary gulches and creeks, such as Chimmekanee Gulch and Whiteys Gulch, flow into the main river channel, illustrating the complex drainage of the local terrain.
