The Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument holds both outstanding natural as well as cultural significance. Among the prominent natural features of the monument is Pilot Rock, a volcanic neck similar to Devils Tower of Wyoming. Soda Mountain Wilderness is a wilderness area within the national monument located adjacent to the California state border.

The cultural significance of Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument lies in the remains of some 100 prehistoric Native American dewllings and root-gathering sites within the monument, chiefly by the Modoc, Klamath and Shasta tribes. These tribes were uprooted by the arrival of white settlers to the area in the 1880's.
