Modoc National Forest encompasses the high volcanic plateaus and basins shown here, dominated by the expansive Big Sage Reservoir in the northeast. This 2018 survey reveals a landscape shaped by water management and high-altitude terrain, featuring a series of smaller impoundments including Upper Cummings Reservoir, Kelley Reservoir, and Essex Reservoir. The topography is defined by the sharp rise of Whittemore Ridge and Porcupine Rim, overlooking the broad, flat basins of Round Valley and Crowder Flat.
