Alt Text Map of Lava Beds National Monument in California. Represented in green, the park’s border is dark green with areas of white and pale green within the boundary. Dozens of named rivers, buttes, peaks, caves, trails, and other features are labeled. Extended Description Local Road FS-10 begins at the northeast corner of the map, moving west along the north and then curving down to stretch northeast-southwest across the map, passing through points of interest such as Gillem Bluff and Devils Holmstead Flow in the northwest corner and the Visitor Center and Cave Loop Road near the south center of the map. Black Lava Flow Wilderness Area and the Callahan Flow are west of Local Road FS-10 at the southwest border of the map, and Schonchin Wilderness Area and the Schonchin Flow are along the eastern border of the map. This description will use this highway to navigate the landscape from west to east across the top section above the park boundary, the middle section within the park boundary, and the lower section below the park boundary. Then the sites around the park will be identified in clockwise order before a full transcription of the legend. Top section above Lava Beds National Monument Along the left edge of the map and outside the park, Modoc National Forest runs along the western border, connecting with Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge and Tule Lake Sump, which stretches east-west northeast corner of the refuge. Modoc National Forest continues along the eastern border of the park. Points of interest in the Modoc National Forest to the east include Peninsula Castle Rock, Tule Lake Segregation Center, and Petroglyph Section which has an information kiosk, restrooms, and a self-guiding trail, as well as the Petroglyph Point Trail. Middle section within Lava Beds National Monument In the top left corner of the park, Gillem Bluff runs north-south along the Local Road FS-10 to connect with Devils Homestead Flow. Heading south, a gray access road off FS-10 leads to Fleener Chimneys, which has restrooms and a picnic area. Below this, a brown road leads to Merrill Ice Cave, which has restrooms. From here the road connects to Whitney Butte Trail, stretching 3.3 miles to Whitney Butte within the Black Lava Flow Wilderness Area to end just north of the Callahan Flow. Farther south along FS-10, the longest gray road heads southwest first to the Heppe Cave Trail and Heppe Ice Cave, and then to Hidden Valley and the Big Nasty Trail, which stretches 2.0 miles and passes Mammoth Crater. Between the two southernmost roads branching off from FS-10 are, from left to right, Island Butte, Eagle Nest Butte, Modoc Crater, Bearpaw Butte, and Hippo Butte. From here, the highway bends southeast to the Visitor Center and Cave Loop Road with a note reading “Inset map below,” then continuing on to the southeast corner past Caldwell Butte. The northern section of FS-10 passes, from left to right, Entrance station (seasonal), Canby Cross, Captain Jacks Stronghold which has a restroom, self-guiding trail, and picnic area, and Hospital Rock. As highway FS-10 curves south, Devils Homestead extends out to the northeast. Farther south along FS-10, a northernmost 1.1-mile trail leads past Black Crater to Thomas-Wright Battlefield, with Ross Flow and Hardin Butte just beyond the trail. Heading farther south along FS-10 are points including green squares labeled Boulevard Cave and Balcony Cave, and black dots labeled the Castles that appear on either side of FS-10. A gray road with a restroom at the end connects to a trail leading to Schonchin Butte. Moving farther south, a brown trail connects to a blue circle labeled Skull Cave, as well as to a network of trails. One trail branches north 0.8 miles to Big Painted Cave and then Symbol Bridge. Another heads northeast for 8.2 miles along Lyons Trail, which passes by Juniper Butte and connects to the northern section of FS-10. The network of trails continues with a 7.5-mile Three Sisters Trail that passes by the Three Sisters mountain, and another leg travels south for 0.7 miles along Missing Link Trail. Bunchgrass Trail extends out 1 mile from FS-10 to the west, connecting the Missing Link Trail, the Indian Well campground, and the Three Sisters Trail. Past the Visitor Center, FS-10 continues southeast to a short brown road to Valentine Cave. Bottom section below Lava Beds National Monument Below the southern border of the park boundary, from west to east across the Modoc National Forest are Cinder Butte, Local Road FS-49, and FS-10 leading to Little Sand Butte. A note next to FS-49 reads, “Road to Medicine Lake partially unpaved; closed November to mid-May; winter recreation parking available.” A note next to FS-10 reads, “Rough road; not maintained for winter travel.
