1978 Map of Orleans

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Klamath River activity centers on the settlement of Orleans, where the H E Beck Jr Memorial Br provides a vital crossing within the Six Rivers National Forest. This 1970s survey captures a landscape defined by riverside infrastructure and the legacy of local extraction, including the Bonda Mine and Pearch Creek Mine. The presence of the Anderson Airstrip and scattered hillside properties like the Reece Homestead and Hunter Little Ranch illustrates the transition from traditional settlement to modern forest management and recreation. Away from the water, the terrain climbs toward Black Mountain and Sarvorum Mountain, with many small gulches and creeks such as Chimmekanee Gulch and Wilder Creek carving through the timberland. Genealogists may find interest in the isolated Cem and Grave locations marked along the river's winding path.
