About this map

Chickabally Mountain rises as the central landmark in this part of Shasta County, where a network of seasonal watercourses and remote flats defines the landscape. The drainage system is anchored by the Middle Fork Cottonwood Cr, which receives flow from numerous named gulches including Rush Gulch, Corral Gulch, and Yuka Gulch. These natural corridors, along with Budden Canyon, indicate a rugged topography shaped by significant elevation changes.

Evidence of historical land use appears in named clearings and family-identified tracks such as Wilson Field, Pentacola Field, and Wiley Flat. Access to these isolated areas is provided by a handful of established routes, notably Stewart Ranch Rd, Vestal Rd, and Fiddlers Ln. The map records a sparsely populated region where geography and drainage patterns dictate the placement of ranching or agricultural outposts like Saunders Flat and Wilson Flat.
