2015 Map of Chickencoop Canyon

About this map

Chickencoop Canyon and Franklin Canyon dominate the lower half of this central Tulare County landscape, where the foothills of the Sierra Nevada begin their ascent. The area is defined by a series of steep drainage systems, including Yokohl Cr, Horse Cr, and Wells Cr, which carve through the terrain between prominent landmarks like Potato Hill. Human development is concentrated along the southern corridor, where Yokohl Dr provides the primary access route through the canyons. Notable high-ground areas such as Jordan Flat, Oak Flat, and Little Oak Flat suggest pockets of level terrain amidst the otherwise vertical landscape. The map captures the interface between the valley floor drainage and the mountain foothills, illustrating the network of creeks that feed into the larger Yokohl Creek watershed.
