2001 Map of Ukonom Mountain

About this map

Klamath Wild and Scenic River carves through the northwestern corner of this Siskiyou County landscape, a region defined by high peaks and remote meadows at the start of the 21st century. The map centers on the high elevation of Ukonom Mtn, where a Lookout once stood to monitor the surrounding Klamath National Forest. The southeastern portion of the quadrangle transitions into the protected terrain of the Marble Mountain Wilderness, featuring a series of isolated clearings such as Stanshaw Meadows, Big Meadow, and Halfmoon Meadow. Small outpost locations like Jawbone Camp and Jims Camp suggest a landscape primarily utilized for forest management and back-country recreation. Drainage systems like Ukonom Creek and Haypress Creek feed into the river system, illustrating the steep, well-watered topography that characterizes the Happy Camp Ranger District.
