Crevison Peak stands as the central high point of this landscape where the boundaries of Santa Clara, Stanislaus, and Merced counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of steep drainages, including Long Canyon, Sycamore Canyon, and Indian Wells Canyon, which flow into larger systems like Garzas Cr and Romero Cr. This map reveals a complex topography of deep gulches and flats, such as China Cabin Flat and Rough Gulch, illustrating the difficult passage through the Diablo Range. Small bodies of water and perennial sources, including Bass Lake, Tule Lake, and McDowell Spring, provide critical points of interest in this largely undeveloped area. The presence of features like Hawk Rock and The Narrows suggests a landscape of significant geologic relief, while Blue Hill Gdns indicates localized land use amidst the canyons.
