About this map

Butte Valley National Grassland dominates this northern Siskiyou County landscape, where the flat basin meets a series of prominent volcanic elevations. In the northwest corner, the small settlement of Somerset sits near the intersection of Sheep Mtn Rd and Old State Hwy, serving as a gateway to the high desert terrain. Local history is anchored at the Lakeview Cem, located just off Lakeview Cemetery Rd near the base of Juniper Knoll.

The eastern half of the map rises into significant peaks including Sheep Mtn, Baldy, and Inlow Butte, while the southern reaches transition into the Klamath National Forest. This 2018 survey reveals a network of rural connections like Red Rock Rd and Dorris Tecnor Roads Connection that weave between ephemeral water features like Lough Lake and rugged landmarks such as Murch Butte and Rattlesnake Butte.
