2020 Map of Skeleton Mountain

About this map

Umpqua National Forest land dominates this section of Jackson County, where the terrain transitions through a series of significant peaks and flats. High points like Skeleton Mtn and Panther Peak define the northern landscape, while southern elevations include Battle Mtn and the distinct Spignet Butte. The map reveals a network of resource-management roads such as Skeleton Mtn Rd and Battle Creek Rd that provide access to the interior. Level terrain is found at Elderberry Flat, Ash Flat, and Willow Flat, which historically served as key transition points within this forested environment. The drainage system is heavily influenced by the upper reaches of the W Fork Applegate Cr and E Fork Applegate Cr, alongside numerous smaller tributaries like Slick Rock Cr and Sam Cr that carve through the mountain gaps.
