2001 Map of Yellow Dog Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

The Marble Mountain Wilderness dominates this corner of the Klamath National Forest, defined by a network of high ridges and deep river canyons at the start of the 21st century. High-country landmarks like Yellow Dog Peak and Bear Wallow Peak overlook a landscape where the Salmon River and its numerous forks, including the Scott River, have carved through the Marble Mountains. Remote outposts and historic stopping points such as Abbott Ranch, Wilson Cabin, and The Cedars provide rare evidence of human habitation in this protected backcountry. Long-distance hikers are served by the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail, which winds through the north, while the Ranger Trail and various gulches like Shotgun Gulch and Deadman Gulch speak to the area's legacy of exploration and forest management. The presence of Shelly Lake and Bug Lake highlights the glacial character of these high-elevation basins.
