About this map

Johnsons Hunting Ground and the high drainage basins of the Marble Mountain Wilderness define this Siskiyou County landscape. The area is marked by a high density of alpine lakes, including the central Ukonom Lake and the cluster of Blue Granite Lake, Green Granite Lake, and Gold Granite Lake to the southeast. These water bodies are connected by a network of seasonal and perennial streams such as Ukonom Cr and Burney Valley Cr.

Human presence is limited to remote outposts and seasonal sites like Cedar Flat Cabin and Pickle Camp, indicating a region primarily used for backcountry recreation and resource management. Landmarks like No Mans Mountain and Pigeon Roost overlook deep valleys, including Franks Valley and Cuddihy Valley. The survey also details specialized locales like Tickner Hole and Mule Pocket, which speak to the historical use of the land for livestock or hunting long before modern mapping.
