2018 Map of Dewitt Peak

About this map

Dewitt Peak rises above a series of prominent ridges and drainages in this section of Tehama County, where the southern reaches of the Lassen National Forest meet the open livestock ranges of Mud Springs Plains and Durley Flat. The landscape is defined by its volcanic geology and water systems, including the complex forks of Dye Cr and Antelope Cr that have carved deep canyons like Dewitt Gulch and Kingsley Gulch. This 2018 survey illustrates the persistent use of these lands for grazing and timber, noted by named landmarks such as Dead Cow Flat and Willow Tree Ridge. Transportation through this isolated country remains anchored to historic routes like Hogsback Rd and Cone Grove Rd, which traverse the high ground between the various gulches and ridges.
