Of the Rogue River National Forest from ABBOTT BU1TE to ZIMMERMAN BURN: a PLACE-NAME HISTORY and GAZITEER of the ROGUE RIVER NA11ONAL FOREST A Place-NameHistoryandGazetteer of the Rogue River National Forest FROM ABBOTT BU1TE TO ZIMMERMAN BURN: A PLACE-NAME HISTORY AND GAZITEER OF THE ROGUE RIVER NA11ONAL FOREST C.R. Job AR-I 48 (RRNF-HRC item B-66) Compiled by: Jeff LaLande Forest Archaeologist April 1995 This 1995 edition of From Abbott Butte to Zimmerman Bum updates the 1991 version of the gazetteer, which was a major revision of past versions. In the time since the first edition of this place-name history/gazetteer was compiled in 1980, research has resutted in additions and changes. Local residents and other persons interested in southwestern Oregon history have generously passed along to me both corrections and suggestions for added place-name history items. I hope that readers will continue to do this, and that From Abbott Butte.., can be kept 'up-to-date." I can be contacted at Rogue River National Forest, P.O. Box 520, Medford, OR 97501. J.L 1995 ROGUE RIVER NATIONAL FOREST RIVERS AND STREAMS FROM ABBOTT BUTTE TO ZIMMERMAN BURN: A GAZETrEER OF THE ROGUE RIVER NATIONAL FOREST What's in a name? What is the history behind a geographicname like "Bear Pan Spring' or "Slickear Gulch'1 In some place-names theremay be a bit of humor or legend; in other names, there may be a dose of personal ego - or more often, simply puzzlement for the present-day resident. Whatever their origin, place-names can tell us much about the history of a region. This gazetteer, or "place-name history" glossary (updated froman initial version in the Forest's 1980 Cultural Resource Overview), lists most of the named natural and cultural landmarks within the Rogue River National Forest, and it attempts to give brief discussions of "why and when" each onewas named. Some of the names are no longer in use; a few have been used for less than five years. The historical information for many place-names is basedon at least one written or personal source; these are cited in brackets at the end of the entry. The information for many others is not based on specific references, but is considered to be commonly accepted within the "public domain" of local and regional history. In some cases, the historical background given here is only speculative, but this is made clear in the wording for each entry. (* A few entries haveinformation based largely on my past, casual conversations with long-time local residents, but which can not be recalled definitely as to name or date of the interview; rather than eliminate this information from the gazetteer due to lack of documention, it has been included and is noted with an asterisk at the end of the entry.) The designations in parantheses refer to the Ranger District in which each feature is located; the abbreviations indicate the county: Applegate Do:Douglas Ashland Ja:Jackson Butte Falis Jo:Josephine 06: Prospect K: Kiamath Si: Siskiyou Who gave the peaks and streams these names? In reviewing the following "names on the landscape," it becomesapparent that virtually no Native American-applied names have survived into currentusage. Early place-names like "Indian Creek" and "Squaw Lakes"were bestowed by Euroamencan settlers- and often probably well after the last aboriginal inhabitants had disappeared from the area. (See Takelma Indian place-names listed under: Bear Creek, page 8.) This reflects the rapid obliteration of native cultures in the upper Rogue River drainage during the I 850s; most Indian survivors were removed from the area by 1857, and their centunes-old geographic names disappeared with them. The Rogue River National Forest is divided into two separate sections: the Siskiyou Mountains and the Cascade Range. A very few place-names date from the second quarter of the nineteenth century, the period of initial exploration by trappers and other Euro-Americans. A significant number of place-names in the historic mining districts of the Siskiyou Mountains date from the third quarter of the nineteenth century, the initial "gold rush" period. Similarly, a large portion of the place-names in the Cascade Range section of the National Forest were evidently given to the various streams and mountains during the last quarter of the nineteenth century and the first decade of the twentieth century. This reflects the historical sequence of settlement in these two geographically distinct areas. However, by far the greatest percentage of place-names for the highest elevation sections of the Rogue River National Forest were bestowed by Forest Ser,iice employees between 1907 and 1930. This period witnessed the first detailed mapping of these remote areas, when names were needed for the scores of small creeks and not-so-prominent peaks whick had escaped naming during previous decades. Some of the names honored current Forest Service employees and their wives; others were more imaginative. Probably over eighty percent of all place-names for the Rogue River National Forest date between 1880 and 1920; a few of them post-date 1930. A post-1980 trend is the adoption of new place-names commemorating Native American groups and "chiefs" or long-time area settlers. The practice of naming natural features after Forest Service employees, for the most part ended by the 1 930s- due in part to stricter regulations governing the official approval of new place-names. There remains a surprisingly large number of secondary streams and peaks within the National Forest boundary which still have no official or even informal name. Whatever the future may bring in the way of geographic names, it is doubtful that we shall again see the likes of "Middle-of-Hell Creek" or "Dead Dog Gulch." Abbott Butte, Creek, Prairie: Named for Hiram G. Abbott, sub-agent for the Kiamath Indians in the 1 850s and a settler on the upper Rogue River. He prospected and hunted along the Rogue-Umpqua DMde during the 1860s. The August 13, 1866 issue of the Jacksonville Oregon Sentinel mentions Mr. Abbott's return to the Valley from a hunting expedition in the "upper Rogue River country"; he arrived well stocked with dried elk meat after 'the best shooting of the season." (06-Do, Ja) (McArthur; OS] Abney Butte: According to long-time Applegate District Ranger Lee Port this peak was named in about 1910, after USFS Ranger Bill Fruit lost his abney (a slope-percentage measuring instrument) on the north side of the mountain. The August 7, 1869 Oregon Sentinel mentionsa John Adney as lMng in Jacksonville, but Port's name-origin is probably reliable. (01-Si) [Port; OS] Alex Creek, Hole, Camp: Probably named for Alex Ward, miner of the 1850$, or possibly Alex Conover, a miner and swineherd of the same period. (01 -Si) [JC Census 1860] Alkali Creek, Meadow: A Ca. 1900 sheepherder'scamp, Alkali Camp, is located at the meadow. A number of sheepmen of thisera came each year from central Oregon, where alkali lakes and "flats" arecommon. This is a puzzling name; no alkali (or high salt content) areas are known for thisarea. (06-Do) Alsarena MIne: Originally called the Applegate Mine and Elk Creek Mine, it was also known as the "Buzzard Mine" soon after 1900. The mine was purchased by new owners around World War II who remaned the operation, combining the syllables of their first names (Alfred, Sarah, and Rena McDonald) into the word "Alsarena." The decade-tong controversy over timber-cuttingon the mineral daims, documented in lengthy Congressional hearings, contibuted to passage of the Multiple-Use Mining Act of 1955. (06-Ja) [RRNF-HRC] Afta Lake: One of the lakes in the Seven Lakes Basin, Sky Lakes Wilderness, said to be named by an early Forest Service Ranger after a young lady whom he admired, Miss Alta Allen of the Butte Falls area. (03-Ki) [J. Henshaw] 4 Anderson Camp, Mountain: A turn-of-the-century sheepherders'camp (also known as "Minter's Camp") was located here. Thename evidently commemo- rates an early sheepman, Frank Anderson. "Andersons Springs," (located in Crater Lake National Park) was named in 1888 by 0. C. Applegate,also to commemorate Frank N. Anderson. An 0. F. (Frank?) Anderson homesteaded near Woodruff Meadows and the name may have resutted from his use of the area. (06-Do) (McArthur; Wynd; RRNF-Ho] Annie Creek: A recent, unofficial name applied to a tributary of Ashland Creek by two Forest Service geologists; both of their middle nameswere "Annie." (This name may be historically appropriate because the first female employee on the Crater National Forest was Annie 0. O'Brien.) (02-Ja) (Brown-I; personal knowledge] Applegate River: Named in the late 1 840s for Lindsay and for Jesse Applegate, who are said to have stopped at the mouth of the river when laying out the Southern Emigrant Road in 1846 (or for Lindsay Applegate duringa 1848 trip through the area). The Takelma Indians called it "S'bink" (Beaver) River and the Shastas termed it "ltskatawayeki." The Athapascans called it "Ta'khoo-pe" (meaning uncertain, but it may translateas "pretty place"), which is the origin of the word Dakubetede. (01 -Ja, J0, Si) (Walling; Sapir; Harnngton] Armstrong Gulch: Thought to be named for Reuben Armstrong, Canadian-born miner and pioneer lumberman of the Applegate Valley, 1860s-1880s. The Oregon Sentinel for this period mentionsa number of men with this surname. (01 -Ja) (JC Census 1860-80; OS] Arrasmith Gulch: Early 20th century name (not shown on current maps) for a south-draining tributary of Squaw Creek, located about one-half mile downstream from Dividend Bar (at the present concrete bridge) .AMr. Arrasmith (or Arrowsmith) and his Indian wife (who is recalledashaving a tatooed chin) lived in a small cabin at the mouth of the gulch.

  • Little Applegate Hydrology Report
    Little Applegate Watershed Hydrology Report Michael Zan * Hydrologist April 1995 Little Applegate Watershed Analysis Hydrology Report SECTION 1 LITTLE APPLEGATE RIVER HYDROLOGY Mean Monthly Flows: Except for some data collected from May through October 1913, and from June through October 1994. there is no known flow data for the Little Applegate River or its tributaries. With this in mind it was necessary to construct a hydrograph displaying mean monthly flows by utilizing records from nearby stations that have been published in USGS Surface Water Records and Open-File Reports. In constructing a hydrograph, a short discussion of low flows is first in order. Since low streamflows have been identified as a key question pertaining to the larger issues of water quantity/quality and fish populations, the greatest need is to gain a reasonable estimate of seasonal low flows to help quantify the impacts of water withdrawals on instream beneficial uses. With this in mind, extreme caution must be used when extrapolating data from gaged to ungaged watersheds. This is particularly important in determining low-flow characteristics (Riggs 1972, Gallino 1994 personal communications). The principle terrestrial influence on low flow is geology and the primary meteorological influence is precipitation. Neither have been adequately used to describe effects on low flow using an index so that estimation of low flow characteristics of sites without discharge measurements has met with limited success. Exceptions are on streams in a region with homogeneous geology, topography, and climate, in which it should be possible to define a range of flow per square mile for a given recurrence interval.

  • South Fork of Little Butte Creek Area Naming Proposals
    South Fork of Little Butte Creek Area Naming Proposals Presented by Dr. Alice G. Knotts INTRODUCTION We begin by thanking the Oregon Geographic Names Board for its careful work exhibited and accomplished in recent years for naming geographical features in the State of Oregon. We have identified some physical features in the area of the South Fork of Little Butte Creek located in Jackson County and put forth name suggestions and proposals. We believe that most of them are located on public lands of the U.S. Forest Service or the BLM, but the Knotts Cliff is on private land. 1 Naming Proposals for the South Fork of Little Butte Creek Area Identified in geographic order of approach from Medford, the road up the South Fork of Little Butte Creek and the Soda Springs trail 1009 that follows upstream Dead Indian Creek that is proposed to be named Latgawa Creek. 1. Hole-in-the-Rock Name a rock arch located on top of a hill NW of Poole Hill. Hole-in-the-Rock has been recorded on a BLM map but not with GNIS. 2. Pilgrim Cave Name a rock shelf with ancient campfire smoked walls. A shelter for travelers for thousands of years. 3. Knotts Bluff Name a cliff that defines the northern side of a canyon through which runs the S. Fork of Little Butte Creek. 4. Ross Point Name a prominent point on Knotts Cliff above the cave. 5. Latgawa Pinnacles Name a group of rocky pinnacles located near Camp Latgawa. 6. Marjorie Falls Name a water slide on Latgawa Creek upstream from the soda springs.

    LUNAR TOPOGRAPHIC ORTHOPHOTOMAP (LTO) AND LUNAR ORTHOPHOTMAP (LO) SERIES (Published by DMATC) Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Scale: 1:250,000 Projection: Transverse Mercator Sheet Size: 25.5”x 26.5” The Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Series are the first comprehensive and continuous mapping to be accomplished from Apollo Mission 15-17 mapping photographs. This series is also the first major effort to apply recent advances in orthophotography to lunar mapping. Presently developed maps of this series were designed to support initial lunar scientific investigations primarily employing results of Apollo Mission 15-17 data. Individual maps of this series cover 4 degrees of lunar latitude and 5 degrees of lunar longitude consisting of 1/16 of the area of a 1:1,000,000 scale Lunar Astronautical Chart (LAC) (Section 4.2.1). Their apha-numeric identification (example – LTO38B1) consists of the designator LTO for topographic orthophoto editions or LO for orthophoto editions followed by the LAC number in which they fall, followed by an A, B, C or D designator defining the pertinent LAC quadrant and a 1, 2, 3, or 4 designator defining the specific sub-quadrant actually covered. The following designation (250) identifies the sheets as being at 1:250,000 scale. The LTO editions display 100-meter contours, 50-meter supplemental contours and spot elevations in a red overprint to the base, which is lithographed in black and white. LO editions are identical except that all relief information is omitted and selenographic graticule is restricted to border ticks, presenting an umencumbered view of lunar features imaged by the photographic base.

  • Temperatures Cool by Shading the Stream from Solar Radiation. These
    Chapter 3 Affected Environment Conde Shell temperatures cool by shading the stream from solar radiation. These trees and shrubs also contribute nutrients to the system as coarse organic material that is crucial to the macroinvertebrate communities that support fish and other aquatic organisms. Large wood has been identified as a limiting factor in Dead Indian and Conde Creek systems.5 The effects of large wood on stream form and function are positive, creating pools, trapping sediment, providing cover for fish and other aquatic species, and stabilizing banks during high flow events. Beaver have historically contributed wood in the form of beaver dams, to these systems. Beaver dams are present in the upper section of Dead Indian but absent in Conde Creek. Two dams were observed on Dead Indian Creek, below the confluence with Conde Creek.6 South Fork of Little Butte Creek and tributaries have been identified by Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) (1994) as water quality limited under Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. From the mouth to Beaver Dam Creek, South Fork of Little Butte Creek is water quality limited due to flow modification, habitat modification, sediment, and summer temperature. Dead Indian and Conde Creeks are limited by summer high temperatures, exceeding the maximum 7-day average for temperature (>64 F). Temperature monitors placed throughout Conde Creek and upper Dead Indian Creek during the summer of 1998 found water temperatures ranging from 65 - 77 F in late July. 7 The geology of an area plays an important role in describing fish habitat through the physical processes driving a system.

  • Little Butte Creek Watershed Assessment
    Little Butte Creek Watershed Assessment Little Butte Creek Watershed Council August 2003 Abstract The Little Butte Creek Watershed Assessment has been prepared for the Little Butte Creek Watershed Council with funding from the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB). The Assessment was prepared using the guidelines set forth in the Governor’s Watershed Enhancement Board’s 1999 Oregon Watershed Assessment Manual. The purpose of this document is to assess the current conditions and trends of human caused and ecologic processes within the Little Butte Creek Watershed and compare them with historic conditions. Many important ecological processes within the watershed have been degraded over the last 150 years of human activity. This Assessment details those locations and processes that are in need of restoration as well as those that are operating as a healthy system. The Assessment was conducted primarily at the 5th field watershed level, that of the entire Little Butte Creek Watershed. List and describe field watershed levels below. Where possible, the analyses was refined to the smaller 6th field watershed level, thirteen of which exist within the Little Butte Creek Watershed. The assessment also notes gaps in data and lists recommendations for future research and data collection. It is intended that this document, and the Little Butte Creek Watershed Action Plan be used as guides for future research and watershed protection and enhancement over the next decade. The document was developed using existing data. No new data was collected for this project. Where data was lacking, it was detailed for future work and study. Acknowledgements This assessment was compiled and written by Steve Mason.

  • Weather and Climate of the Rogue Valley by Gregory V
    Weather and Climate of the Rogue Valley By Gregory V. Jones, Ph.D., Southern Oregon University The Rogue Valley region is one of many intermountain valley areas along the west coast of the United States. Nestled in the southwestern portion of Oregon, the landscape of the Rogue Valley is extremely diverse, coming from the joining of three mountain ranges of varying ages and structure: the Klamath and Siskiyou Mountains to the southwest to southeast, the Coastal Range to the west, and the Cascades to the east and north. The region is drained mainly by the Rogue River and its major tributaries; the Applegate River, the Illinois River, and Bear Creek. At the largest scale, the weather and climate of the region is mainly influenced by the North Pacific Ocean and the westerly winds of the mid-latitudes. The maritime air masses that originate over the Pacific are cooled by the ocean currents offshore and moderate the climate of the region. Seasonally the west coast undergoes shifts between cooler, moister conditions in the winter with a strengthening of the Aleutian Low that brings storms into the region; to warmer, drier conditions in the summer that are associated with the dominance of the Pacific High. On a regional scale, the general north-south or northwest-southeast oriented valleys, with their proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the number and height of mountain barriers, help to create climate conditions of wetter and cooler areas in the western parts of the region and warmer and drier eastern areas. At the local scale, site differences in elevation, topography, and orientation to the sun influence the variation in gardening potential.
