About this map

The settlement of Bartle serves as a central point in this high-elevation forest landscape where several major townships meet. Located within the Shasta National Forest, the area is defined by its numerous springs and volcanic peaks, such as Sheepheaven Butte and Stillwater Butte. The southern portion of the quadrangle is marked by the course of the McCloud River, which flows through a region of scattered meadows including Curtis Meadows and Atkins Meadows.

A network of forest routes, including Forest Rte 15 and Black Fox Lookout Rd, provides access to these timberlands. For those interested in the hydrology of the southern Cascades, the map documents dozens of water sources like McKay Springs, Slagger Spring, and Sheepheaven Spring, many of which feed into the Bartle Cr system. The varied terrain ranges from the flat expanses of Big Sand Flat to the steep relief of Shirttail Canyon and Buck Mtn.
