1996 Map of Sexton Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Mining operations and remote timber sites define this pocket of the Southern Oregon landscape during the mid-1990s. The region is marked by historic resource extraction, with numerous workings such as the Lucky Queen Mine and Hammersly Mine dotting the drainages of Jumpoff Joe Creek and Louse Creek. While Winona serves as a small localized center, the map also identifies the former locations of Lucky Queen (Site) and Forest Queen (Site), highlighting the ephemeral nature of mountain camps in this rugged area. High peaks like Sexton Mtn and Walker Mountain loom over a network of 4WD trails and forest roads that connect deeper prospects like the Twelve O'clock Mine and Orofino Mine. Traces of community life appear in the south at Sportsman Park and a surviving Schoolhouse label, providing a look at the interplay between industry and settlement in Josephine County.
