2021 Map of Cohasset

About this map

Cohasset and Forest Ranch sit atop the prominent volcanic ridges of the northern Sacramento Valley, overlooking a landscape carved by the Big Chico Cr and its numerous tributaries. This survey illustrates the intricate network of ridge-running roads like Ponderosa Way and Cohasset Rd, which navigate the steep topography of Cohasset Ridge and Keefer Ridge. The area is characterized by deep ravines such as Nelson Ravine and Platte Ravine, which drain toward the valley floor. To the north, the boundary of Lassen National Forest marks a transition into more heavily timbered terrain near Promontory Point. Genealogists will find the locations of Cohasset Cem and Forest Ranch Cem invaluable for tracing local families, while the presence of landmarks like Bear Lake and Durbin Spring highlights the importance of water sources in this elevated, drainage-defined environment.
