1960 Map of Riverbed Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Sycan Marsh and the Sycan River dominate this high-desert landscape within the Fremont National Forest and Winema National Forest. The map documents a transition from early resource extraction to mid-century forest management, evidenced by the trace of an Old Logging Railroad winding through The Basin and past Horse Glade. Remote outposts and family-named landmarks like McCartie Ranch, Griffin Ranch, and the Sycan Fire Guard Sta provide essential data points for local genealogists and historians tracking settlement in the Lake and Klamath county borderlands. Numerous water sources, including Frying Pan Spring, Watkins Spring, and Meryl Reservoir, define the locations of these early homesteads and grazing lands.
