2001 Map of Youngs Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

Knownothing Mine and Wolverine Mine sit within a high-altitude landscape defined by the drainage of Knownothing Creek and the South Fork Salmon River. This area of the Klamath National Forest is marked by a deep history of resource extraction, with numerous sites such as the Gilla Mine and Brooks Mine scattered across the steep terrain of the Salmon Alps Mountain Wilderness. Settlement patterns are sparse, with tiny outposts like Missouri Bar and Shingle Flat situated along the riverbanks, likely remnants of early mining activity. High peaks like Youngs Peak and Bowerman Peak rise above a network of gulches and creeks, including Hotelling Gulch and Poverty Gulch, which once supported the water needs of local mining operations. The map also records the presence of the Barton Cabin and a Flume near Blackberry Creek, offering clues to the isolated living conditions of this remote mountain district.
