2012 Map of Beegum

About this map

Beegum sits at the junction of Beegum Rd and Tedoc Rd, serving as a central point in this landscape of cattle ranches and gulches in Shasta County. The map details a legacy of land ownership through numerous named homesteads, including the Williams Ranch in the north and the Foss Ranch further south. These sites are linked by local tracks like Sunnybrook Ln and Ball Rd, tracing the movement of people and livestock through the foothills. Water sources are critical to the character of the terrain, with Beegum Cr and the Middle Fork Cottonwood Cr cutting through the hills. From the heights of Patty Mocus Butte to the depths of Goldsborough Gulch, the map captures a rural California environment defined by its drainage basins and isolated ranching outposts.
