About this map

Old Cow Cr and S Cow Cr descend from the upland ridges of Shasta County, carving a series of deep drainages as they flow toward the Sacramento Valley. This landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, with named features such as Clough Gulch, Wagoner Canyon, and Townsend Gulch illustrating the complex erosion patterns of the region. The infrastructure reflects a rural ranching and utility character, most notably at the Cow Cr Forebay, where water management systems interface with the natural topography.

Transportation routes like Whitmore Rd and Oak Run Rd wind through the township and range divisions of t32n r2w and t31n r1w. The southern portion of the area transitions toward the Central Valley floor, where the terrain levels near Bear Cr and Sheridan Cr. This survey captures the transition from high-relief canyons to the edge of the valley, documenting the persistent drainage names and local property access roads that have shaped this part of northern California for generations.
