About this map

Fremont National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Lake County, characterized by a series of prominent basaltic features and numerous natural springs. High points like Coleman Point and the sheer Coleman Rim overlook a series of volcanic plateaus and basins, including Grasshopper Flat, South Flat, and the curiously named Picture Flat. These features are connected by an extensive network of Forest Service roads and the Quartz Mtn Snowmobile Trail, which traverses the western section of the map.

Water sources are vital to this terrain, as evidenced by the dense concentration of named springs such as Colt Spring, Blonde Spring, and Eagle Spring. These perennial sources feed local drainages like Dead Horse Cr and Dairy Cr, supporting the forest ecosystem. The map also identifies specific mining or resource sites, marked by identifiers such as mtr2800440 and mtr2800563, which speak to the area's history of land management and extraction.
