2015 Map of Bartlett Mountain

About this map

Mendocino National Forest dominates the high-elevation terrain of Lake County, where steep drainages like N Fork Cache Cr and Rice Fork carve through the coastal range. The 2015 survey reveals a landscape primarily defined by its topographic extremes and historical landholdings, such as Rose Place and Wild Bill Place. The transition from the high wilderness of Bartlett Moutain down toward the southern edge of the map shows a marked shift in development. Near the northern shores of Clear Lake, the community of Nice appears with its established street grid, including Lake View Dr and Panoramic Cir. This area contrasts with the remote interior, where features like High Glade Spring and Sulphur Spring indicate the natural hydrology of the mountain valleys. Geologists and local historians can trace the network of forest roads, including the Bartlett Springs Rd, which historically connected the interior springs to the settled valleys below.
