About this map

Bartle serves as a central point in this high-elevation landscape within the Shasta National Forest, where the terrain is defined by volcanic peaks and expansive meadows. The settlement pattern here is tied to forestry and resource management, evidenced by the presence of the Stagger Camp FS Station and the intersection at Four Corners. Water sources are vital features of this upland geography, ranging from the McCloud River to isolated points like McKay Springs and McIntosh Well.

The landscape is punctuated by prominent relief such as Buck Mountain, Sheepheaven Butte, and Little Black Fox Mountain. These features rise above flat valley floors like Big Sand Flat and the lush Curtis Meadows. This 1990 provisional survey details a network of forest roads and creek systems, including McKay Creek and Stillwater Creek, reflecting the area's ongoing importance for timber and watershed protection during the late twentieth century.
