About this map

The high timberlands and volcanic terrain of the Winema National Forest and Fremont National Forest dominate this landscape on the border of Klamath and Lake Counties. The northern reaches of the Williamson River and the Sycan River wind through the topography, which is punctuated by specific landmarks like Teddy Powers Meadow and the ephemeral Silver Dollar Flat.

Resource extraction and early land use are evident through features such as the Cinder Pit, Gravel Pit, and a designated Corral. Water sources are critical in this environment, marked by numerous named points including Bottle Spring, Rock Spring, and Godown Spring. The map also captures the remote settlement of Cordelia and the Pelican Reservoir, providing a detailed look at the hydrology and high-altitude forest management at the close of the 20th century.
