2023 Map of Shake Butte

About this map

Sycan Wild and Scenic River carves through the high plateau of the Fremont National Forest, defining a landscape where volcanic terrain meets essential water sources. The map provides a detailed look at the hydrology of this Klamath County region, from the wetlands of Kingry Marsh to the seasonal flows of Shake Creek and Long Creek. The topography is dominated by the volcanic profile of Shake Butte, rising above high-altitude meadows like Paradise Flat and Crazyman Flat. A network of forest roads and trails, including the Hadley Snowmobile Trl and routes leading to Pikes Crossing, illustrates the modern recreational and management infrastructure within this protected timberland. For those tracing historical land use or backcountry routes, the presence of numerous named springs such as Driscol Spring and Watson Spring highlights the vital importance of water points in this arid timber environment.
