2015 Map of Rainbow Mountain

About this map

Klamath National Forest and Shasta National Forest meet in this high-elevation region of Siskiyou County, dominated by volcanic peaks and alpine drainage patterns. The 2015 topography is defined by prominent landmarks like Rainbow Mountain and Dry Creek Peak, alongside several named volcanic buttes including Fons Butte and Trout Creek Butte. Water sources are scattered throughout the timbered slopes, ranging from the high Antelope Cr Lakes and Hemlock Lake to the lower elevation Cramer Spring and Elk Flat. The transport network is sparse, centered on the primary Pilgrim Creek Rd, reflecting the managed forest character of the landscape. This sheet provides a detailed record of the ridgelines and watercourses, such as Trout Cr and Antelope Cr, that define the hydrology between these two major national forests.
