About this map

Yamsay Mountain dominates this portion of the eastern Cascades, straddling the boundary between the Winema National Forest and Fremont National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its prominent volcanic topography and a network of high-country meadows and springs. The divide between Klamath and Lake counties runs directly through the center of the sheet, splitting major landforms like Buck Ridge and Jackson Ridge.

Drainage patterns here are complex, with headwaters flowing in multiple directions from the central highlands. To the south, Deep Creek and Calahan Creek flow toward the lower basins, while the West Fork Silver Creek and Guyer Creek carve paths through the eastern slopes. Remote water sources like Antler Springs and Blue Buck Spring provide critical points of interest in this heavily forested terrain, accessible via a grid of forest service roads including Natl Forest Develop Road 1040 Rd.
