About this map

Chanchelulla Peak and the high ridges of Shasta County define this 2012 survey, where steep drainages feed the Middle Fork Cottonwood Cr system. The area around Knob and Williams Ranch serves as a focal point for researchers interested in the rural settlement patterns and forest road networks of the early 21st century. The map details a landscape carved by numerous named gulches, such as Midas Gulch, Deadshot Gulch, and Bluford Gulch, reflecting a history of local nomenclature tied to the terrain.

Industrial and recreational footprints are evident through the extensive Forest Service road network, including the Sierra Pacific Logging Rd and Deer Lick Springs Rd. These routes provide access to remote landmarks like Philpot Lake and Deer Lick Springs. The topographical data shows the relationship between high points like Knob Peak and the winding course of Browns Cr, offering a detailed view of this timber and watershed region.
