About this map

Campbell Mound and the southern reaches of Lassen National Forest dominate this landscape along the Tehama and Butte County line. The terrain is defined by a series of dramatic ridges and deep canyons carved by an intricate network of waterways, including Pine Cr and Rattlesnake Cr. These natural drainages converge as they flow toward the Sacramento Valley, creating a distinct geographical transition marked by prominent landmarks like Steamboat Point and Sugarloaf Mtn.

Evidence of early water access remains visible through named locations such as Bell Spring, Root Spring, and Negro Spring, which likely served as vital stopovers for travelers and livestock. The southern portion of the survey reveals a shift toward road development, with local routes like Via De La Cruz Way and Chasen Rd appearing near Keefer Ridge and Cohasset Ridge. This area illustrates the balance between protected forest lands and the advancing rural infrastructure of Northern California in the early 21st century.
