2018 Map of Davis Creek

About this map

Davis Creek and the surrounding high-altitude terrain of the Modoc National Forest define this corner of northeastern California. This survey captures the complex drainage systems that feed into the high desert landscape, featuring prominent water bodies such as Bishop Lake and the Halls Meadows Reservoir. The mapping of small settlements like Little Valley and Halls Meadows illustrates the sparse but persistent human presence in this region, which is primarily organized around timber and grazing lands. Significant mountain features, including Buck Mountain and Little Baldy, anchor the topography, while the intricate network of forest roads such as Plum Valley Rd and Benton Meadow reflect the modern infrastructure used for resource management and access to remote springs like Needle Grass Spring and Benton Meadow Spring.
